The Heart Pumps Red

The Heart Pumps Red

A Poem by Melinda McQueen

The Heart Pumps Red

 

Smiles all around,

Helpful hands at work

For the glory of the Lord.

Happy and sound.

Love which heals.

Beauty is found within

One’s heart and not skin,

For in the heart love fills.

 

No room for hatred

As love fills the space.

Where the heart pumps red--

The shared color of the human race.

An awakening of the spirit--

May all hear it.

I agree dear Melinda.
"No room for hatred
As love fills the space.
Where the heart pumps red--
The shared color of the human race.
An awakening of the spirit--
May all hear it."

"The shared color of the human race." ... killer line says i! something we all need to keep front and center in our hearts and minds .. we are one and the same in too many ways to allow beautiful differences to divide .. really appreciate you poem .. good stuff!!
