Toro Corazon

It was Yesterday afternoon
a day, like any other
the day least thought
it had rained in the morning
it was cloudy later on
but there he was
standing by the door
waiting outside, impatiently
I heard the beating
like a drum in tremolo
and then, when I opened the door
he stared at me
and jumped in my arms
I'm so full now
so complete
it's like the sun came out
I wasn't sure he would find it's way home
not since I had moved to Renton
and there he was
and now I have him back
a dog?
no, of course it's not a dog
if it was it would probably bark
it is a strong, Spanish bull
it is my heart.

The bull is a special combination of voraciousness, strength, vigor and acumen, and the heart thrives when pumped with honesty, inspiration, creativity, friendship, and love…you are blessed with all of these.

Keep writing with the bull unleashed and the heart untethered!
