douglas Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 the tear appeared from the corner of his eye glistening and salty and pure a piece of the ocean a piece of peace a droplet from paradise silently it glided down the contours of his cheek blessing his spirit and holding within it thankfulness and humility and grace transcending all of his earthly limitations and he thought:tears are as effortless as breath as mysterious as the moment of conception or becoming they are the diamonds of god the jewels of the soul sent down to help us upon this wondrously weary way a reminder of our innate holiness, splendour and uniqueness he looked at his reflectionas he cried touching the sacred liquid as it traced its path smoothly and delicately down his face and he was humbled and calmedsuddenly remembering who he really is that one tear that single droplet holding within it the very essence of his soula watery conduitkeeping him connected to the Lightduring a brief walk upon the earth Quote To receive love, you have to give it...

Benjamin Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Read and enjoyed this one several times: "mysterious as the moment of conception or becoming"--- together with your last stanza are key lines that for me create a poem within a poem. Well done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
