"The Wisdom of the Heart" poetry by Ym

  Artist Karen Gillis Taylor

Wisdom of the Heart

I believe in the wisdom of my heart.

When I listen to the voice within ~
   the wisdom of my heart...
I hear the whisper of love
  and the song that begs me to dance.
I hear the cry that calls me to compassion
  and the moan that is humanity's pain.

When I listen to the voice within ~
   the wisdom of my heart...
I hear the laughter of child-like innocence
  and the hum that breathes as peace within.
I hear the growl as it warns of discontent
  and the roar that is the strength in my life.

When I listen to the voice within ~
   the wisdom of my heart...
I hear the whimper that says "I am hungry"
  and the twitter that lights me with excitement.
I hear the yawn that says "I am tired"
  and the screams that release my anguish.

When I listen to the voice within ~
   the wisdom of my heart...
I hear the sigh that reflects the cleansing breath
  and the "ahhhh" a hymn that is my Beloved's embrace.
I hear the OM that vibrates ONENESS
  and the silence that graces my connection to ALL.

I listen to my heart ~ in all its many voices.
What I want to know I trust to find there.
ALL answers lie within.

AHO!    AMEN!    OMTATSAT!
