The Library of my Heart

I visit often, the Library of my Heart.
Sometimes I go to reminisce,
and at other times, I find my self

browsing through the volumes,
as I catalogue them
and replace them on the shelves.

There are so many volumes,
I’m really quite taken “aback”, at times;
Because I realize that I’ve been so liberally blessed,

with these episodes of the heart.
And on any given day,
I’m always pleasantly surprised;

for there almost assuredly is a chapter
that I may have forgotten about;
or at least, a page or two that’ll raise a brow,

fill me with a certain sorrow, or even cause me to laugh out loud…
….and it really startles me…….the “noise”.
Because every once in a great while, I tend to forget…….it IS a; “Library!!!
