Where does your heart call?

Poem on Laux’s “Heart”

Unsplash

Heart with its eyes fixated on the creaky rocking chair,

Hopeful heart, breathing timidly, legs fidgeting at the desk,

Or heart is a full patio with laughter rising, drinks clinking.

Heart is the worm inching through the dirt, caught by a bird,

Heart moves like the thin string chasing after the nimble kite.

Heart of cotton, fur, feathers laid high, or bubbles in the bath.

Ready-to-go heart with its seat belt buckled,

foot on the pedal.
