Earl Schumacker Poet Rhyme

Tears On the Wind

Tears On The Wind

Tears on the wind glisten in the light of day
Rolling droplets, prisms of swirling colors stay
Lifted to announce at first, a sad story
My charming friend who died in glory
A special human being
A soul who gave to everyone her everything
Shining life glows on those nourishing tears
Fills us at first with grief
Followed by the warming quenching relief
A thirst for life
Honoring a life that never fades away again
Tears merge with sun light on the droplets of soothing rain
Take on a new life to feed the oceans, plains and grounds
And like our friendship, nourished, it remains forever found 

                                                            5/27/14 Tears On The Wind contest
