Notes About The Poem

" OCEAN OF TEARS " MY PHOTO, ©

May be an image of 1 person, ocean, twilight and sky

Ocean of Tears

The boat of Joy,

And that of Sorrow,

Over

The tempestuous seas of tears,

Endlessly navigate!*

 * Whether we jump for joy or sorrowful we are, we cry!

Demetrios.I remember the first time I held my first baby in my arms.The joy mingled with the sense of responsibility for this life I had been part of bringing into the world brought on a waterfall of tears as beneath it I smiled.Lovely Demetrios.

It does seem like a boat in rough water, or the familiar rollercoaster ride. Thanks for sharing, my friend. Hope your week is progressing well. Bill

A boat or a rollercoaster ride makes no difference, my dearest friend, Bill for the result is always the same: Tears! Always a pleasure to see you! Blessings!

Nothing calms our emotions more than inner tranquility in the middle of chaos and commotion, my friend Demetrios. It's interesting how God formed us to squeeze out tears in both immense grief and delight.

Yes, it is incredible that two opposite emotions end up with the same reaction, my dearest friend, Vijay! Blessings!
