The heart is a strange thing...

Nah, that aint a post by me... Just a poem i came across in one of my poetry volumes today... A poet whose works are not available on google!!! And wif i dont post, will be lost in the 700 page tome... so here goes

The heart is a strange thing
It has no eyes
But it can see through dark earth
And beyond blue skies

The heart has no hands
But, knowing love’s touch
All the hands of the world
Cannot do as much

The heart has no feet
But it may go
Swiftly to Heaven above
Or Hell below

The heart is a strange thing
More strange than the head
Sometimes it may live again
After long dead
-- Minnie Case Hopkins
