Heart-shaped Box

Inside this box, you will find

My hopes for a brighter tomorrow

My dreams for a better future

My fantasies for a life without sorrow

Inside this box, you will find

My love for all humankind

My compassion for those who need

My empathy for the suffering

Inside this box, you will find

My faith in the goodness of people

My belief in the power of hope

My trust in the strength of human nature

Inside this heart-shaped box, you will find

All this and more once you open it.

About the Creator

Mother Combs

Come near, sit a spell, and listen to tales of old as I sit and rock by my fire. I'll serve you some cocoa and cookies as I tell you of the time long gone by when your Greats-greats once lived.
