How’s The Heart?

We see a mother with no child We meet a stranger poor, exiled How`s the heart while it still beats? Asks a no-one Another John Doe Sorrow hides well in your shell A fellow man with hurt to spare Dear one Here I am to share the fear An act of kindness Without an amen How`s the heart Underneath the silence? How`s the one Drowning in the mire? Let us sound a human paean Come in, the fire`s warm Burn the rope and dance some more We met where the cliff greets the sea Shared a story, took the leap Rose up rooted, hid a note You know where You`ve been there Now there`s one who came from me A child of light, another tale Dear one Night will come but not to stay Why? The answer`s in the Fair winds my love Fly towards the calm Fly utterly lost Towards a beating heart How is that heart Underneath the silence? How is the one Drowning in the mire? Let us sound a human paean Come on in, the fire`s warm Dull the blade and dance some more
