TEARS OF LIFE ... Tears of life, from sadness or joy do come; Emotion's rain falls hard, but cleanses pure. Drops of my spirit plummet to their peril; Water of my body gives back its salt to Earth. For want of nothing more than loves of my life; Take of my tears to quench soul's drought. For need of nothing less than a life of love; Make of my tears, love's bath to sustain. Running streams of joy fill my heart; From you comes strong currents of contentment. Overflowing banks of inspiration fill my mind; From you comes a fluid effluence of ideas. Protection from flooding waters of bitterness; Your sweet love to keep and hold as dam's blockade. Preservation from stagnant pools of monotony; Your effervescent spirit to replenish, spring fresh. Tears of my life, dry not in midday sun; Fall where love's thirst be quenched at last. Loves of my life, let me sip at your fountain; Liquid stream of blessings to drink so vast.

For want of nothing more than loves of my life; Take of my tears to quench soul's drought. For need of nothing less than a life of love; Make of my tears, love's bath to sustain. Running streams of joy fill my heart; From you comes strong currents of contentment. Overflowing banks of inspiration fill my mind; From you comes a fluid effluence of ideas. ---------------------- Tears of my life, dry not in midday sun; Fall where love's thirst be quenched at last. Loves of my life, let me sip at your fountain; Liquid stream of blessings to drink so vast. ---------------------- *sigh* now who could resist that... "let me sip at your fountain" have mercy...  Hi and Welcome to Passions MA.... wonderful writing here.... nice to meet you take care jm I think I could need - this in my life If you're gone - baby you need to come home there's a little bit of something me In everything in you MB20 |

MA, Awesome poem!!!! So happy you have found our family and hope you stay. Looking forward to reading much more of your work. Welcome to Passions!! LW Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |
