Last night
A tear fell heedlessly
Upon my hand...
A strange, clear drop
Of grief.
There, as a jewel it shone...
And only I could know
That in its depth
Was held
The reflection
Of your face.

saddest summary of a
life contains three
descriptions:
could have,
might have,
and should have.

i would have voted for it also. enjoyed the read so very much. and i see a type of play going on but i might be off key. i see something like an angel cring and its that person tear.

I agree with the others. Beautiful and sad ...

How do you know these things Rex? Always does the tear contain deep within those reflections...
Masterly writing!
