Jane Austen’s heroines –(ah, dearest Jane…) <br />knew a thing or two – <br />show a man you have a mind, <br />and you may catch his heart.. <br /> <br />and men – <br />flowers, a poem, a compliment, <br />something of beauty <br />to show you have a heart, <br />may bring you to her mind.. <br /> <br />so poetry: <br />meaning is beauty to the mind, <br />beauty is meaning to the heart.<br /><br />Michael Shepherd<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/mind-that-heart/
