Ramblings
 

Tears

Born of emotion

their destiny I fear,

is to well into life

then disappear.

Joy, sadness,

anger, pain,

they make no distinctions,

no judgments, no blame.

One of many

they’re too hard to stop.

Hearts break or mend

on a single drop.

They can cheer,

they can cleanse,

show love,

fuel elation,

Or help drown a soul

in total desolation.

They’re always with us,

no matter our years.

We never grow too old

to shed a few tears.

The Gift

I love to walk the fields at dawn,

barefoot through the dew,

to sit and watch the rising sun

turn the dark sky blue.

 

Some days are bright with promise,

like a budding tree.

Some are dark and blow right by

like an autumn leaf.

 

Each day is a gift we're given,

fragile, like fine glass,

ours to mold and try to hold

before it hurries past.
