like the ocean
there are depths
in my heart
that will remain
forever unknown

This is fantastic. I wrote one with a very similar theme a couple of weeks ago.

I smile and sigh,
keeping it to myself
once again-
a woman's heart
is a deep well.

Thank you John & Kristin for your comments.

Kristin, your poem is just beautiful.

firmly rooted
where the winds don't blow -
a mother's heart
