Loves Radarscope Poem by Mark Heathcote

Empathy caring compassion sympathy understanding kindness
you, wish to be seen on loves-radarscope-
as a solid Ark, passengers embark.
Your arms trestle out with the weight of hope
and keeps your head above a watermark?
Every voyage is a journey of faith
staying just above the next tidal wave?

Yes, one act of kindness can change the world.
Don't we all need rescuing from dark despair?
Like sea-going birds, a little too whirled-
on wings near folded commit to prayer
our souls need buoyancy, a terminus,
a harbour our hearts can be of service.

So you want to pilot alone at times.
Ignore dangerously all warning signs
but something always turns those bleak-dim-tides
and has you reaching out where love resides
an anchor in a port you can never-
raise or plot a course-from move-propeller.
