And They Cry

She left home 
Leaving calculus of tears
Encrusted under the eyes of her children

She left home in blade of sorrows 
Leaving her children in suspense
But participated in a ghost congress
Our souls were left like aw in the skies
Pending cries under the eyes of I


Home was left devastated
And the sun deviated from the east
She left home like ember
And silence curls up in her lap…

Joseph,, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@

I do more of the dirge poems and now trying to perform them on stage. I do appreciate your support and will read your poems too. One thing my brother always says is that every written work of a poet is good so i encourage you too to do your style.
