Tears In Hide

~Marge Tindal*~
o

Tears
in hide
soon will subside
to fall on another day
when you are no longer here
to catch me in complete disarray
Treading of tears is an art of sorts
that I simply could not master alone
Yet they flow in the sad after-know
that they completely sweep me away
Lost in a current of torrential shed
waiting as the trickle runs so deep
Knowing that when they are gone
so will be my reason to weep
For you will not be here
to catch them when
they fall~

Tears in hide ... not yet cried

again, such stunning writing and presentation sweet lady.  Yep, sometimes those tears are waiting in hide, and darn they show up at the worst times.  Hugs poetess dear.

I don't know how you manage to do it...but
you always have something very special with
your poems...  Never an old dull ordinary
poem like mine....

And that makes your poetry very beautiful!

(smile)

Thanx..

Hey Marge!
You snuck in a bluesy lonely poem on tears.....and I really enjoyed the read!

Dear Marge have no fear

Lyra~
I thank you ...
when the words lay gentle on the eyes
that's a special treat for me~

Magnus~
Sweetie ... NOTHING 'dull' in anything you've posted ... I just sometimes find a need to use the whole box of Crayons !
Hey ... if nothing else ... the formatting alone slows me down or the forums would be flooded.

ETHome~
As I told a friend this morning ... I often don't know the 'why' of my ink ... but usually there's someone out there that let's me write their hearts~ I appreciate that~
Thank you sweet friend ... I know the comfort of the circle of friends here~

Bags~
I appreciate your reply.
I just have so much fun 'word-painting'
Welcome to Passions~

Marge:  What a special piece! I am a "tear hider" and a "closet weeper", so I really relate to this one. Of course, almost everything you write touches me in a profound way.

Auntie Margie girl when you write a tear the angels themselves look to see how its done. This is a beauty you really draw the most perfect pictures of poetic heart in sorrow or laughter. This of course is no exception.

I’m so looking forward to September I simply can’t wait to see you in action and to listen to bill play for us all. You know there is no one I’d want to share both my tears and my laughter with more than you, well except mum and she doesn't count she has to do so it’s written in the mummy contract. You do know about the Mummy Contract don’t you? Of course you do, it’s delivered along with the baby. Although I think I have a Margie girl Contract somewhere as well which is very similar

Love and warm stuff
As always
