Michael J. Falotico Poet Couplet

"tears That Fly"

I rolled my tears up in a ball 
and blew them to the sky..
Watched them drift away so
lightly but some just couldn't fly..

As the rest hit the ground and
splashed up on my shoe..
I kicked them all away because
in the end its just me and you..

James Fraser November 21, 2010 at 4:06 PM Tears will fall for reasonal flow, some re-absorbed whilst some are let go. The ones that fall may eventually rebound, and return to the ducts, where new love is found >> James

Carolyn Devonshire November 19, 2010 at 8:42 PM I like the way you dispel the fears. Love makes us vulnerable, so there will always be a few fears that remain behind. Bravo for kicking them away! (I love a happy ending.) Peace and blessings, Carolyn

Sharon Ruebel November 19, 2010 at 6:21 PM Michael, I think that life good and or bad brings people to the same conclusions as some point. It would seem that you & I have a lot in common. Thank you for all your kind words.. As Always, Shar
