Love is red

A near-fatal heart attack landed Andrew in the hospital this week, just before Valentine's Day, so we consider this "red-letter day" and what it means to take good, loving care of your heart health. Special wishes to our readers and viewers, at blog.amynelsonhahn.info

Red-letter Day

.

What do I need more to do

than to gather colors to your heart

and grow within them chambers

that will echo in the dark

so so far away

from all the lonely feelings

we left so far behind –

antiquated, much frustrated,

lost, outdated –

not any of that needs to be said,

especially not today

when birds and bees

and hearts and flowers rule

when love prevails –

another red-letter day,

so near that you can almost

touch it, so close to me that

I can almost

touch you,

just as I imagined.
