I the Teary Eyed

just as salty as small drops run down 				               
past the rouge so cheerfully round                                
rolling past the painted on smile to a frown                                              
splashing into brazen laver of the heart                                  
a comedy of another kind one that binds                                                  
white cascading waves of the honey herb                                                  
midst of the bitter and sweet before the canvas of life's art                                                 one two strokes in the master's hand look but wild streaks                                
never look at a piece the Gracious artist looks to the complete                              
already there laughing again through streaming blues            		   
as we began together you and I twine                  
running hand in hand down gentle hillsides where grows never dark            
Just as sweet the Father's love never will lose it's savor                
favor spilling over this child cannot hopes tide curb                                                            walking peaceably may these golden droplets impart         
the joy I have found again we meet at your humble feet
