The Call of the Heart

The Call of the Heart

A Poem by Melinda McQueen

The Call of the Heart

 

It sees through the dark

Even when you forget who you are.

It knows its truth

Even when it’s not in view.

 

Having no choice

But to listen to its voice,

It ignites a spark;
The call of the heart.

 

Yes, it sees through the muck,

And has steadfast faith when doubt tries to triumph.

It hopes for the best

Even in distress.

 

Though the world screams “No!”,

It whispers, “There’s hope!”

So your dreams continue to embark;

The call of the heart.

 

It calls through the mightiest of storms.

It calls through the loudest of alarms.

It calls within the scariest of fears.

It calls in the presence of tears.

 

Unleashing impossible dreams,

Waiting until they are brave enough to be.

Determined to have their say, their part…

The call of the heart.

For me that call of the heart seems to be the Holy Spirit leading and directing my path. Once pulling out into traffic that inner voice said STOP. I did and avoided a collision by inches. A car came from out of nowhere. Valentine

God is great.
Sooooo good. It is theater good. When I read it, it reminded me of the Riverdance poetry used for that production. This is excellent. I am not worthy. Thanks for this gem. Will definitely read more of your work. Saving to favorites.

Strong and powerful words and thoughts dear Melinda.
"Unleashing impossible dreams,
Waiting until they are brave enough to be.
Determined to have their say, their part…
The call of the heart."
We must never give up our hope and dreams. Go forward in the hard or good days. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.
