The Voice and the heart are in integral part
Of the way we live and the course that we chart
With a voice you can ask challenge and obey
Where as our heart gives meaning to the day


To be able to convey thoughts ideas or a dream
A voice is all that’s needed or so it would seem
But where does the passion and intensity start
The answer is right here deep down in the heart


So others may follow and achieve as we can
God first gave voice to his creation called man
A voice made noises and knowledge it could impart
But the voice lacked emotion and that wasn’t smart


What’s missing or needed he pondered and said
Something to give expression but not in the head
So he went to work, got creative and gave it his best
That’s why you’ll find your heart placed in the chest


It a fragile affair and protected by bone
It’s where our inner self lives when we’re all alone
The rib cage it there to guard against harm
It’s not there to dull or block out our charm
