Re: Kabu dear, many thanks...
You have said it beautifully, sweet lady. Yes, this can be considered an exercise in why a tear falls. I do apologize for writing esoterically; I did not say the tear was mine! Though of course, it could be; but as you noted so well, it could be - well, anyone's. It belongs, if one chooses to consider it to be so, to the reader, perhaps...

Plumbing the depths of emotion one has to write so it becomes recognized as such by ones readers. Of course there is always an element of truth hidden beneath the tears.
It probably would comfort those who feel but cannot express.

Simply said with academic experience, there must have also been an ink drop in order to write the poem. Yes, the sentiment's excellent.

Tears act as a pressure relief valve for the heart and soul. It's easier to wipe away a tear than to mend a broken heart.

Re: Re:Aba Brother dear
Yes sis, the succession of an emotion, feeling, associated with their physical aspects are all discussed very well, and you have my full support for wrtiting poems as the come, because it then becomes lyrical outpourings. Great job, therefore.

Re:Aba Brother dear
Thank you immensely. This is interesting in that yes, there is sadness in this poem. But absurdly, it is the tear who is speaking. And as thoughts come, so comes the tear. Wipe it away, obliterate it, but it comes back, for it resides within. This was a difficult write for me. I had considered an abridged version, more simple to comprehend, but I followed my heart and spewed it out in its entirety. Perhaps that's art, perhaps that's ego. :)

Loved it through and through, sis
The feelings of sadness you've captured so beautifully in your poem, that last drop of tear, the rivulet, streaming down the pathways of your cheek! Wah! Immensely profound with words that match in expressions! Great job, sister Presta
