Heartland

 

Upon the azure stage

Floats every open minded imagination

Designing heaven's floor; allowing

Comforting thoughts of loved ones

To rest on airy pillows of tears.

These are not the wet sorrow kind; contrary:

Salty droplets of nourishment that replenish

The soul of the earth; therefore

Nurturing the lifeline of every

Daydreamer, nightwalker and child of the grave

Giving us all that one bond; there by

Keeping something to believe in

         Beating in the heartland.

"These are not the wet sorrow kind; contrary:

The soul of the earth;...."
