She thought her tears
were going to raise
the level of the ocean,
till he reached over
and sipped them
from her eyes
            one by one ...

Oh, Margherita!  This is so you - original, sensual, beautiful and compassionate!

I am surmising that the poem came first, then the photo, as with "no more"?

This leaves me speechless. These few brief lines contain an infinity of knowledge about love.
Margherita... this is amazing.

Tears are not a proof of weakness but always remains a symbol to nobility of humanitarian In the best feelings and expression about it.
there are many kinds of tears and always bear Expressive feelings about it.

the Proverb says.. each eye wept behind it a heart.

Dear Margherita,

This is a very lovely romantic poem.  

Unfortunately, I can’t conceive of doing that.  I’m afraid I’m not the romantic type.  There are such people in the world.

I know this isnt about the poem, but your experienced here and would know the answer to my proble:

when i post a poem i got 0,1 or 3 replys... I think its because they go down the list very quickly, how can i stop this?

Thanks,
