Diane Christian Poet Rhyme

Big Boys Don'T Cry

who ever said '' boys don't cry''
i'm sure it's just another one of the enemies
bare faced lies
it's not wrong  to show emotion
it's not wrong  to show devotion
we all have hearts that are real
so never be ashamed to show how you feel.

Dave, Rob, James
 never be ashamed to show how you feel
laugh when you are happy
cry when you are sad
rejoice in the Lord
and be glad   for the Lord said '' I will turn your tears of sadness
into rivers of joy''  Love mum.

Carol Sunshine Brown August 26, 2009 at 2:42 PM Yes tears are expected when you are hurting or when you are filled with joy guys. Or when you are laughing so hard you almost wet your pants. Oh sorry that's another subject isn't it. Outstanding writing Diane. ~~~Smiles~~~ just for you Diane. Love, Carol

Sara Kendrick August 26, 2009 at 2:40 PM It is something about male hormones that affect their ability to cry and female hormones that affect our ability to pour. But it is not impossible for the tears for a man. Keep writing. Sara
