About the bluebird in my heart

BANGING, CLASHING, SHOUTING, SHOVING

The heart of the world is

battered and confused.

Conflict, war, death…

pushing humanity to the edge.

Nowhere to go it seems.

I catch my breath and

listen to the rhythmic pounding of my heart.

There is peace deep within,

there is a bluebird of happiness

perched within its depths.

I will set it free to share with the world,

a world that so much needs its message.

Maybe the heart of the world will be set free…

that is my prayer.
