Notes About The Poem

Perhaps the rain that falls, are actually the lords teardrops.

Teardrops

As the rain pours upon us 
Wetness dowses you and I 
Meant not, to detour our paths 
Nor, to cause us grief or pain 
Sent to us 
Through sorrow 
What have we done 
The lord cries 
Dowsing us 
Not rain 
But fallen teardrops 
As they dripped 
From his saddened eyes 
And still 
He hands us sun 
To dry us all 
From the wetness 
That dowsed you and I

- I always thought it was the angels who wept when it rains :))) - But I understand very well that God weeps ... He sees what we humans do with Mother Earth :) - A lovely poem, Charles - hugs // Anne-Lise :)
