Girlygirl Tears |

Worn and tattered from too many winters, the tree stands without a prayer of Summer rhapsody, as Spring has shirked its branches bare. I cry in vain for you girlygirl tears, standing naked before you stripped of pride, without even a mere glance or kindness from you. Weary with rain, the trees can delude into dreams of rebirth as their falling tears still thrive beneath them on receptive green. |

This is so sad but I loved the whole poem. Cold hands means a warm heart |

the trees can delude into dreams of rebirth Ironically was thinking about this today, more generally about the seasons and cycles and how eventually things change..or maybe as you say that's just delusion |

"I cry in vain for you girlygirl tears, standing naked before you stripped of pride, without even a mere glance or kindness from you." I've been that man....and I've learned that if a man deserves the pronoun, he will return honesty, all that he can see and understand....and then honesty is kindness....kindness being love, and love is not just its own repayment, but an invitation for love to be returned. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

Hang on to those "dreams of rebirth" and look forward to more glorious days of "Summer rhapsody"! A wonderfully descriptive and emotional write! Warm hugs, Linda |

Michele, I like this poem, though it is sad. And.....speaking of delusion??? We all need hope and dreams, or we would all be most miserable... and, delusion....who's to say that magic isn't real....sometimes.......so, if we don't believe....sometimes....we might miss out on the one time it is real... |
