There Are No Tears

There are no tears To softly cleanse Covered guilt Of thoughtless choice. There are no tears To gently soothe Hidden sorrow Of aged wrongs. There are no tears To finely heal Scar-bound wounds Of misbegotten wars.

The sun is shining bright here this afternoon in Ohio and I am enjoying reading some very interesting and outstanding writing Deb. So happy to see yours among the ones I am able to read this fine day before I get busy. Have a wonderful day and thank you so much for sharing your poetry with us. Love, Carol
