Read this poem titled, 'When the Heart' with us. When the heart is cut or cracked or broken Do not clutch it Let the wound lie open Let the wind From the good old sea blow in To bathe the wound with salt And let it sting Let a stray dog lick it Let a bird lean in the hole and sing A simple song like a tiny bell And let it ring —Michael Leunig (1945-) For our writing session today, we challenge you to compose a poem using the line, 'When the heart'...
