The Heart

Our earth has a pulsating electromagnetic field.

It pulses,

just like our hearts do,

and almost,

to the same rhythm.

I lay on my back,

trying to meditate.

I try to be thankful for my life

with each breath.

For some inexplicable reason,

I want to feel my own heartbeat-

I want to be thankful for each ‘thump’ I feel.

As I feel my own heart

beating against my skin,

A curious thought enters my stream,

“What if our hearts give off a little pulsating magnetic field

with each thump?”

A slight pulse ,

so subtle,

our measuring instruments

aren’t advanced enough

to detect it

Maybe…
