An Ideal Standard Poem by Doris Cornago

This is a case of heart versus mind, or which should be the basis of one's choice. I'd hate to take a survey and cause a riot among poets, but I do believe most of us will choose by our heart's desires, more than our mind. They say that the mind judges impartially, objectively but I beg to disagree. The mind judges by what it sees but the heart knows what the mind cannot see. I've gone by my heart most times.
