weeping tears of discontent spread like summer fires in mountain stands of trees so tall no fountains feed their thirsts at all fresh-settled raindrops of remorse fall and course down sifting streams like phrases o'erflowing banks of thought no phases of regret are ever taught sprinkling life's lessons with pearl-sized gems of wisdom's sages by passing ages as writings measure life in longings sweet no sightings do themselves repeat the tears, the drops, the sprinkled dew within, upon, the heart of those who do weep the tears of discontent and know what raindrops of remorse have meant |

"no phases of regret are ever taught" This is so true...we are taught the phases of love, of death, maybe even forgiveness but never how to process regret. Enjoyed this...albiet saddened a bit.  Gotta love those smileys... |
