Perhaps our world
is a small molecule
in a tear,
on the eyelash
of one who weeps for us.

A very original idea, so creatively expressed, dear Ida.
I love this much ... though I hope the tear will remain firmly in place or if it has to fall may it fall upon his smile ...

Thank you for this sparkling moment.

Love,
Margherita

Margharita, I guess in my minds's eye I was thinking more of "her" smile.

Loved it!

And it made me think that...
Perhaps our world
is a large smile
on the lips,
on the face
of one who laughs with us.

Dear Ida,

This is an interesting concept.  Who knows about such things.

Ida - not only is it an "interesting" thought but probably a right thought.  Still, I wish the one who cries for us would rather wave his magic wand and put a smile on everyone's face - oh, and love in the heart.

Oh my word! That's the most beautiful thought.  I never would have conceived of it.  And I love the way you presented it, too.  Excellent.
