What Can You Put in a Heart Wall Pocket?
- by Steve Terlizzese


What can you put in a 'Heart Wall Pocket' ?
Why, earrings, or toe rings, or necklace and locket;
Some Q-tips, or hankies, or white cotton balls --
Try cuff links, or bullets, or miniature dolls!

Business cards fit in a teacup so nicely;
When you look for your car keys, you'll find them precisely!
Anything works besides liquidy water --
Just get one to give to your son or your daughter!

Potpourri, paper clips, pebbles or pills,
Baubles, or bangles, or bothersome bills!
Love notes you folded into a small square;
Match sticks, or marbles, or things for your hair.

Crayons, or coupons, or quarters and dimes;
verses and sayings and poetry rhymes!
Have fun with this beautiful heart on the wall --
Fill it with stuff -- or with 'nothing at all'.
