Publisher's Description
Hearts have no template: they vary as much as snowflakes. Like snowflakes, some hearts are cold, but others are warm as babies' hands. Some are gray with melancholy; some bright with good cheer. This collection contains poems that reflect moments of the heart's delight and struggle. Some of the poems are indirect, merely suggesting the presence of the heart. Some are happily frivolous, as hearts can be; others are drawn from deep wells. Yet others squeeze into the group, altogether heartless, having slipped in between pulsations.

“For decades, Ray Haan gave us glorious music for the church. Now he is enriching our lives with beautiful poems. Here is a collection devoted to the human heart by which we live, with all its tenderness, joys, and fears. Meaning in the meanest flower. The cry of a lonely bird. The joy and sadness of a remembered love. Treasures!”
“Like Whitman’s, Ray Haan’s poetry is large and contains multitudes. Poignancy and whimsy, large and small, soul and body, interior and exterior, rules and free, and every poem a delight, a walk along our own journeys from here to heaven. I grinned and teared up and gazed into space walking the path of another wise and wonderful Haan collection.”
