Poet's Heart

Innocent dreams and impossible scenes
swirl and tumble swish and stumble 
through my mind
 
Raindrop tears and ghastly fears 
assault my soul and take their toll
on my mind 
 
Winter's grace and fall's embrace 
Summer's fever and spring's reliever
stir my mind 
 
Painted canvas and glossy images 
snapped and drawn so tenderly 
inspire my mind
 
Then you dear love creep in each thing 
and bake them to a wondrous being 
and melt my heart
