Hearts have no template: they vary as much as snowflakes. Like snowflakes, some hearts are cold, but others are warm as babies' hands. Some are gray with melancholy; some bright with good cheer. This collection contains poems that reflect moments of the heart's delight and struggle. Some of the poems are indirect, merely suggesting the presence of the heart. Some are happily frivolous, as hearts can be; others are drawn from deep wells. Yet others squeeze into the group, altogether heartless, having slipped in between pulsations.

Raymond H. Haan attended Calvin College and the University of Michigan. He survived thirty-nine years as an English teacher, pursuing his passion for church music by serving as organist and director of music and publishing music for worship. Since retiring, he has written a light-hearted book of serious grammar instruction, miscellaneous prose, and a good helping of poetry, including Singing the Gamut, Word Songs and Whimsies, Alphabetical Frolic, The Unfathomable Theology of Fishing, Rambles through the Heart, and Going from Here (all Wipf and Stock). He lives in Cutlerville, Michigan, near his four children and a goodly quiverful of grandchildren.
