Welcome! I love to write, and I love sharing what I write with my readers. I vary my style as much as I can-posting events, creative non-fiction, prose and poetry and the occasional video. Enjoy!

My Heart Stone: By: Christine McFarlane

my heart stone

it sits
in my palm

my fingers
are wrapped
around it
tightly

i don't want
to let it go

i don't want
to lose it

my heart stone

because I wonder
if I let it go
will the memories
go away too?

my heart stone

its shape is
unyielding
and cold

it only warms up
when i hold it
in my hand

my heart stone

 brings
warm thoughts
and a smile to my face

as I recall
that whenever I felt down
or felt like I would forget you

the image of a heart
would appear

my heart stone

(this poem may be reworked, but I wanted to post this because I haven't posted in awhile)
