Author's Notes: I co-authored this "Tear Drops" free verse poem with my friend and colleague Liam McDaid on October 20, 2014. Liam had previously posted this one first. I am just now getting around to posting it with my poems. You, the reader, may enjoy reading this one again!! (Gary Bateman, November 15, 2014) (Free Verse poetic format)

Categories: allegory, desire, devotion, emotions, feelings, love, and metaphor.

Putting down sword of truth falling from dark clouds true blue feelings you draw from the deep ocean curling waves warmly galloping summer wind warm and moist that love glance that moment Emotions floating softly upon whispering silent winds kissing golden sands wet freshly salted teardrops washing your feet with love fulfilling your heart’s wishes Most beautiful I adore in the name of beauty always means forever sweetly in the end gazing in your eyes touching moist lips Love you liberate me freely if only one could see this soul crystals crashing to the ground rising to the occasion with love cherishing every moment fully never saying goodbye How precious shining a true treasure touching gossamer wing longing brush wishing in an everlasting memory hoping always for the best making life happen always showing no fear ever Memories of a love so true wishing a life together forever embracing each other so warmly caressing and kissing openly seeking fate and destiny in life crying tear drops openly Liam McDaid and Gary Bateman – A Free Verse Collaboration, Copyright © All Rights Reserved (October 20, 2014)
