Turn Tears To Pearls

Worthy Is the one who Shares well the vastness of "wealth" Drinking the gold from the past's sorrows Owning to the sacrifice of those who paid the price Molding their tears into pearls. By CarolineCécile Copyright © 08.11.10

A very well-formulated acrostic that reflects the type of wisdom you apparently possess. Admirable presentation.

if we never learn from those whom came before us,what do we learn,except to multiply the errors of the past...the pearl is a great price for the sacrifice of the worldly for the heavenly,or more properly understood,the higher mind in tune with the universal mind....they've said in the past,"don't toss pearls to swine...",but whoms to say,who is who,in a world of misunderstanding...even Christ reached out to those who needed the most....anyway,very nice...peace , jay

Thank you for the comments, Allysa. Just want to mention that "wealth" here is not about money, but about wisdom which is the acrostic word. Thanks to all for reading and for your comments. Caroline.

Wise words, indeed, Caroline. We often fail to learn from past sorrows or thank those who paid a price for our freedom and happiness. A very insightful acrostic! Love, Carolyn
