Kept Eternally

*** Kept Eternally *** The causes for our weeping — From hunger to grieving — Occur — in whimpers to wailing. However, our tears, we believe, Are in themselves liquid, and, thus, silently Flowing their sad running from our eyes Along the crescents over reddenened cheeks to be Wiped away…Although they go, those tears, each Like a hologram, showing the whole of life That brought them into being here. Similarly, Just as our omnipotent God alone knows Of the each and every hair on our heads, The tears of all our yesterdays, with tomorrow’s, Recite their poetry to our loving Father and Comforter, who collects them, keeping them close Beside Him in “Book of Life,” wherein the life stories Of His of believing children are told. ———————————————————————————————————————(c) sally young eslinger 2/3/23 Thanks be to God…
