O' human heart
O' heart, I wonder how you can store so many different emotions of ours in just thy four puny chambers while pumping away the liquid of life
O' heart in you we discover love but side by side you can harbour hate In you we find the emotion of happiness but side by side you simmer rage!
When you cease to beat many plans you thwart May God protect the precious heart.
And while some O' heart you hold dear some make you skip a beat in fear!
O' heart but we find in you as well the vile emotion of jealousy Such a potpourri of emotions in you dwell Help filter out any wrong ones for me!
A mere four chambers indeed, but spacious are they Invite therein whomsoever in the world you may
But in the end forget not to reserve atleast a single chamber for its Creator, to preserve The creator of hearts More than that deserves.

I love the description of blood as "the liquid of life" and the final line's acknowledgement of the Creator God. Very well-written!

Thanks soo much for such a fine comment. I've been compared by other poets to many famous classical poets such as Keats, Dahl and others so I'm flattered u fink I read a bit like Shakespeare too.

Won't lie at first I wasn't feeling it but the further I got the deeper the message and the more I could relate. Definitely worth reading.

Thanks so much, ah, but your name too is not clickable so I don't know if I read your poems and how to find them. Only some names are clickable here.

Oh dear I don't use any professional conventional poetic devices, my muse is always meandering and my rhythm and rhyme always obey my muse rather than vice versa like perfect classic and professional poets. I'm mainly for the content.
Warmest thanks for your comment. Have a great day.

This was very well written and I loved the creator part in it. The whole thing flowed very well and I loved the picture that went with it.
