John Hamilton Poet Monorhyme

When the Water Falls From the Eyes

When the water falls from the eyes



When the water falls from the eyes
It's a display of sorrows size
Cascading tears sometimes surprise
As water falls down from the eyes

When the water falls from the eyes
Emotions release,      realized
Griefs expressions are recognized
As water falls down from the eyes

When the water falls from the eyes
As pains distresses cause heart sighs
Relief comes with sorrows goodbyes
For now, water falls from the eyes.


An echo poem in recognition of two fine poets who inspired this!

Frederick Parker's poem Heart's Waterfall
and 
Daniel Turners monoku Heart Sighs

Both excellent works! Give them a read also!

Thanks to you both for inspiring this one!

Gary Bateman August 4, 2016 at 6:56 PM John, Very well-done here!! As water falls from our eyes on occasions of great sadness, it does provide a definite cleansing and rejuvenation process -- a very necessary aspect and part of the "human experience." A "7"!!

Jan Allison August 4, 2016 at 12:20 PM A heartfelt echo poem, you were inspired by two wonderful poets John - I still have not grieved for my late father - maybe one day the waterfall of tears will flow but I've been told by Hospice it can take many years.:-) hugs Jan xx John Hamilton August 4, 2016 at 9:20 PM It's not good to hold it in, it can cause harmful, physical symptoms but all in due time. Thanks for your visits and support.
