Beth,
Some emotions and feelings are real and you have to deal with them. This sounds like you are warning to protect your heart from bad choices is love.
But you never know unless you try. If you chain your heart you might have a very lonely life.
Keep writing and stay heatlhy
Good luck in the contest.
JOan

    Thank you Joan. Actually the heart seem to control all sort of emotions and love is only one. I was think more of negative emotions like anger, fear, desire for revenge. The positive emotions are not quite as dangerous but even with them control is improtant.

There is so much truth in what you have written here. It is difficult to actually complete the task but in reality much better if one can do it. Lots of hurt when we let feelings rule. Great job on this post. Thanks for sharing this one.

This ABC poem, The Heart Deceives, has the proper EFGH formatting and reminds the readers that we should lead with logic and not the heart.

Superb entry, Beth. All five lines express important lessons to reinforce the title. Unexpected and therefore jolting use of 'hijacking'. So true that emotions can be dangerous.

    Thank you for a great review and especially for the six stars. I can dish the advice but I can't always follow it. LOL Actually I've calmed down over the years but I have kids who still lose control.

Great poem for the ABC contest. It's a very insightful and wise poem that guides the reader toward deeper realities than emotions. Well done and I hope all is well.

    Thank you Ted. I probably should work on trying to compose my own emotion instead of giving advice. LOL All is well with me. Are you still traveling?

Thank you for sharing this contest entry with us. Yes, emotions are extremely hard to control, and we often struggle doing just that. I've found, I often need God assistance to control and guide them. Good luck with the contest.

    Thank you Barbara. You are right. It is very hard to get control of some of emotions. Sometime when my heart rate is about to go crazy I have to tell myself to calm down. It isn't worth dying over. LOL

Obviously, one who cannot control his emotions runs the risk of never being in control of any situation he may find himself embroiled in. This can lead to serious complications, even risks of one's mental and physical health.

This difficult (for me) style of poetry you accomplished very well. I like you suggestions written in verse form. It would certainly be grand to be able to harness our emotions!
