The heart is the master of how we live
He taps out the moments as to how we move
The will to keep on going from day to day.
The will to care where we must give.
The brain is the master who gives the heart the go
He does all of the recalling, as how we were taught
The reasoning to weigh the pros and the cons
The instinct to dodge or duck
The eyes see all we need to see
Often more the we need
The can see truth as it is shown
The still see into the past as a guide for today
The mind is the one who makes the judgements
If it is a yes or a no and which way to go
He has to reason with all that must connect
He is the one who makes us, in other eyes reflect
Without all of this
How can one recall life's all in all
Where to keep our treasures to warm us
Where to keep us going, and not let us stall
