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
young human 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.

Hi S. zaynab,
In the chambers of my lifeline heart
Flows the blood that made my lifetime start
Each day it pumps the sustenance
That is the core of my humble existence
.
But also on each chambers wall
Are the scars from many of my pitfalls
Love, hate, happiness, rage
Now are there for God to gage
.
So when it's time for me to rise
I hope that He is well apprised
That in the center of my thankful Soul
It is Him that I do e'er extoll
Peace and Love,

Dear S. zaynab,
It will be my honor to post this on Monday morning, crediting your beautiful poem with it's inspiration. Maybe I should title it, "I Wooed My Guru".
To get such an awesome response to one of my comments, makes my poetic endeavors so rewarding.
Peace and Love,

a wonderful poem
Thanks a bunch. And now I wish to read yours as well.
Dear Zaynab,
It is a beautiful poem.
It is more likely that our heart shall keep operating to its maximum filtering the undue through self-made barriers - not to hurt and sometimes through greater understanding the poets write for themselves.
Kind regards,
Baljit
