The Heart

Ode to Nature, I
The heart.
It is the center of our being.
It reaches out, bringing hope.
It pours out, bringing compassion.
It flows through, bringing love.

It is what binds us together.
It is what makes us human.

When the heart grows cold,
the center turns to ice.
Hardened and condensed.
Solid.
