Emotions Will Fly
A response to "Valentine for Ernest Mann" by Naomi Shihab Nye.
Emotions will fly as the wind turns over interactions
like a fall evening.
Easily they can be read and heard,
But rarely are they deeply understood.
Emotions will fly where the heart will lead them,
A very skillful pilot.
They will rise and fall wherever they are headed,
But there is never one destination.
Emotions will fly when having a great time;
Never shall it feel cold or alone.
The heart brings warmth to those that sting at the
Frozen crystals; melts away the worries and angst.
Emotions will fly when the person most dear to you
Makes your day with simple words.
The are the fuel for the fire inside.
