Red Heart

 

February 14th-candy colored heart reflections flashing in puddles. Red heart balloons, Couples clinging together on crowded sidewalks. Scent of roses, whispered promises, laughter and wine. February wind carries far away sound of love songs. Greeting cards
Some walk alone, brokenhearted, tears.
Love is messy, fleeting, intoxicating, flowing towards the end of the day, uncontained, yet profoundly tender, comforting a tired heart, caring, with long lasting healing.
