Spider Web Tears

Spider Web Tears


My tears to a spider web cling

Captured sorrow
teetering on woven thoughts
and anguished pleas

Freely in the wind and sunlight glare

Until falling,
finding the earth barren and parched,
absorbed until they mean 

nothing

Sad. God catches all them and places them in a bottle holding them Psalms 56:8. He knows our anguish. Thanks for dropping by and commenting on my work. Sara
