True, isn't that strange? When I was a kid, it was always, sad, now, it could be happy, or maybe some other feeling.

Dear Paula, such a tender truth, how a single tear can hold the whole spectrum of feeling. I love the simplicity and honesty of these lines, letting emotion speak without embellishment. A soft, heartfelt piece. Winter Blessings, Paula, Daniel
