there are a million thoughts in a single drop of water a million prayers in one tear how can I separate one from another each drop each time each year evaporate them in drying sun’s rays? more will fall during my lonely sleepless nights and they moisten my empty days a dried thought a dried prayer liquid sorrow more than my share **Thanks to icebox for this great phrase!! |

Why is it that we never seem to run out of teardrops? You would think that the pain some of us endured and the tears we cried would have dried up the supply. Touched my heart in a big way, Hugs Fee Expressions, |

no kidding, sometimes the burden is too much and then one day you find it lifted, if only for a spell, gives one a chance to breathe, and carry the next bundle. I have been waiting for this, you know? |

Sharon, this is awesome. Reminds me of the saying, "It's not what you have but what you do with it." You certainly did wonders with this. God bless Rae |

Even tears are incredible, especailly in what they convey. I hugged my sister today for the first time in over 13 years, my body shaking and tears running. She got tears, too, and then we laughed because her mascara was not waterproof....sisters! I enjoyed this lovely freewrite! Thank you for sharing. ~ Klassy ~ |

I love this. I love the style on you, the depth, and the courage. (and I have tried to read this a kzillion times and this is the first time I wasn't interrupted--no kidding--well, the kzillion was a slight bit of hyperbole  )I think this is among your best, Shar. (I'm still a sucker for your humor poems tho) And I would love to see more of you like this.  |
