Tears Dry Into Salt

Did the gods meet at the salt sea and have a severe tragedy? Where tears flowed from giant eyes and shook the earth in pain. The puddle of tears is the remains of such a great loss of majesty Saltly crystals must have dried from god's cheeks like rain Creation of the world could be simply described poetically Forget all the scientific reason, let poetic logic gain **For the Tears contest

nice personification of god's "cheeks". I too say poetic logic rules the heart. Thanks for reading my poem.

Ps. Smile ~ I almost forgot, great title &, it is said that salt, is the flavour of the world so, keep writing & sprinkling "Your Beauties" seasonings of light; whatever sweet, sours, shades or colours they may be!? ~ "Have A Very 'Blessed & Beautiful' Tomorrow My Dear &, 'Majestically Beautiful Poe;' A Fave" ~ "Sweet Dreams;" Bye!:) ~

Smile ~ First, "Thank You" for stopping by! Very nice to see "Your Beauty" again "Dear, 'Preciously Priceless Doris Culverhouse!!!'" ~ I love the soulful beauty I find amid this sweet & lovely piece; a wonderful painting &, I too believe that Spirits of Light & Life can through truth, bring sooo much more unto the world than science itself; poetry & the power of The Word....Hope "Your Treasures" are well &, "My Love & Warmth to 'You Always' &, All You Love, 'Forever,'" John!:) ~
