The Heart is Large - and Gracious

Does the Heart have eyes

Does the Heart have eyes
Or do they only adorn the face,
Can it see beyond the skies
Envision the presence of god’s grace,

Do the Mind’s eyes within it reside
In the cracks and crevices of the Brain
Or, do they too in the heart hide
The repository of feel and pain

For, feelings, too, in the Heart live
The Preacher and the Judge within,
The one who knows how to forgive
However dark, the committed sin.

It’s quality of Mercy is not constrained
The Heart is large and magnanimous,
It is the home of true blood and duly veined
Loving, forgiving and gracious.
