This little poem of adventure follows the journey of The Little Black Heart, who unravels mystery and discoveries along an unbeaten path. The little heart does not realise at first how its new colours emerge and in an unexpected flash, experiences its first heartbeat. It starts from a land of black, black sand where the little heart glimpses the future and takes off with a spark of hope. It needs to overcome limiting beliefs to take the leap. In its travels, the little heart encounters ups and downs, but finds clues as well. This story is about growth. It is about understanding how our past experiences influence our present and continuous choices in life. It touches on opportunities which if unknown to us, may slip through our fingers. The future is as bright as you project it, and you, the reader, will find empowerment in this story. Realisation that you have the freedom to choose, is this little book’s aspiration. The pieces of art in this book are yours to treasure and personalise for yourself. Go on this journey with someone important and together, open up a world of possibilities. This space is yours, and in that space, unlock your curiosity. Let your ideas run free.
