a thimble full

a thimbleful of love
what does that weigh,
and where does it go
when it goes away.
a thimble full of trust,
so hard to earn.
and too easy to lose,
when love is spurned.
a thimble full of hope,
circled round our hearts.
where will we be,
if that inner glow departs.
a thimble full may seem quite
small,
but it is infinite
as one cannot measure
what is contained,
in it.
