Tears Are So Special
They pay homage to great writing
And artistic delivery of line and lyric
Pour over grief for dearly departed
Or for a life thwarted too soon in youth
Tears punctuate happiness
Unexpected, surprising and overdue.
The ducts that deliver our tears
Are connected to the heart
Triggered by mind-melds
Of kinship, friendship and all other love
With a dash of salt, remembrance,
Kindness, thankfulness, love
And generosity, tears are very special
To the humanity of soul, measured only in time
And to the spirit of life unending
Measured in an eternity of smiles and tears.
