Poem Title:
Poem
Oh, fuming teardrop! You’ve boiled over from wrath and anger, leaving painful blisters as you sear the heart Why you don’t evaporate is a wonder but there must be a valid reason… If only to let the heart know it lives Oh, fuming teardrop! Will you ever learn how to forgive? Oh, defiant teardrop! Teetering on the edge and glistening, refusing to fall to make yourself known It is not fickle mindedness playing, rather, a power play of emotions a blatant refusal to show what’s within Oh, defiant teardrop! Why even stop yourself before you begin? Oh, crocodile teardrop! If you were truly so, slink back shamefully, recede to your lacrimal gland and stay put There is no need for your insincerity, the world is chaotic as it is, too troubled Fall not, trickle not, trick not who see you Oh, crocodile teardrop! How can you be so heartless to fool people so true? Oh, pensive teardrop! How gracefully you streak down window sills Wash away grime and grit, cleanse everything Flow unhindered, purify hearts you fill Laughter may be the music of the soul, but you are pure— the distilled spirit Oh, pensive teardrop! Will you course down blackened hearts, pay a visit? Oh, jubilant teardrop! Married to laughter, frolic and dance to its tune Give birth to hope then soar with elation Brighten faces, sparkle days, light up the moon Let souls remember that you speak of pain, joy Let them remember, then allow them to heal Oh, jubilant teardrop! Why did I ever doubt that you are spirit revealed? 04062011 **for Paula’s “Beseech “ contest :)
