so i've been told....

i'm not sure if i've lived a life prior to the one i'm living now
and
i'm not sure i will live a life after this one is over
but
i've been told
i have and that i will
all i know for sure
is that i wear my heart
openly
and
on my sleeve
~
honestly
there are days
that if i'm not careful
things and people
literally fall right into it
even though it feels so full already
and
i wonder if maybe they just didn't see it

so
after meeting this calf yesterday
i wondered if maybe
in a previous life
she wore her heart on her sleeve
too
and
decided this time
it was more prudent to wear it front and center
so you'd have to get past her
deep as the ocean eyes
and
not a chance in hell of a life preserver
before just falling in
~
after all
a heart can only take so much

can you even imagine the fields of cows surrounding me here in wisconsin.
can you even imagine my excitement when the only field i stopped at on my drive yesterday had a calf with a heart on her forehead. can you.
serendipity i tell you. sweet serendipity.
