The Value of Tears |

slow to anger yet fierce in my rage I stand certain in crowds of doubt feeling pangs of repression while breathing sighs of relief longings once fallen short praise me in quieter moments tears once spent for naught reveal their timeless value in birthing my hopes and dreams in freshly tilled fields of deliverance She told me "play one for your supper Danny and maybe you'll get breakfast". |

You out did yourself here in my book. your introspection is impressive. Very good for a silly person such as your self. I liked this very much! ~L |

First two lines set the poem up, and what comes after them is outstanding. ~ If they give you ruled paper, write sideways. ~ |
