Throw Out the Nets for the Wondrous Heart

Lorna



If someone thinks

You've hung the stars

And made the heavens blue

That you have shaped

The rolling hills

That the moon depends on you

That the horses run

To the paddock gate 

Whenever they see you smile

That the lark in the field

Sings a higher note 

Because you watch him fly

That dolphins outrace

The stately ships

To show themselves to you

Why then you have captured

A wondrous heart

And a love to hold onto

    Lorna,
    Such a beautiful poem with the perfect song to accompany it! It made me cry for reasons that I’ll share with you at another time!
