Inborn Tears
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I congratulate
the icicles on their serenity.
They have courage and backbone;
their hard hearts will never give way.
Mid-morning I hear drops of water steadily falling.
I look up at the eaves. I see
the enactment of the same old story.
The icicles are weeping away their inborn tears
and if they only knew it, their true identity.
