HEART SPACE

always room in the heart for one more
to carve the space especially reserved for them
"sure, move over," the others say"
unique, this one,
unusual shaped
but they shift themselves
to allow a customized fit
for the newcomer
who enters wondering,
"why so vast?
where do I go?"
ushered to the space that's been there awhile waiting
expansion
contraction
elasticity -
some friends require that
depends on what you're bringing
and expecting
sometimes voices echo across the emptiness of dormancy
(a little too roomy for me)
everything needs to be nurtured -
the growing part's easy...

Hi. I cross-stitched the first line of your poem with little chicks together and it's still hanging on my wall.

I like that 'ushered to the space that's been there awhile waiting
expansion
contraction
elasticity'... Thank you for this poem 'heart space' -- love it.
