World of Forms

World Of Forms

Sun drops in on us
Draws tears from the well of Earth
Children drink up light, water
Oceans have more salt
Both form the world that forms us
Tears dry, sun rises higher

Hi Faye, Thank you for your observation. Love is great. Love is good. I was gravitating more towards the idea of the salt in tears, the salt in oceans, to make my point; having the sun as a purifier to refine or forge those forces and dry them into love or one definable world. Tears in the well have the flavor of life. People and oceans are the salt of the Earth. Congratulations to you too for an excellent win. Have a great week end. Earl
