Brimming, sloshing, moist dewdrops
Welling up in the eyes
Rolling down the cheeks
Briny pearls
More eloquent than words
Harbingers of braided emotions
Of overflowing love or contrition
Emissaries of seductive joy or acute desolation
Of losing a loved one
In an unknown zone
Festal moments
Surrounded by loved ones
Highlighting joy
Moments that will soon become memory
Umbilical cord severed never to be attached again
Disappointments failing a promotion
Snuffing success despite meritorious commendation
Soiling man's heart
Nature's plumbing to lighten the burden
Like rain on parched earth, satiating grief
Scaffolding for an exhausted frame
Gathering sap at soul's root
Molten sunshine gleams through frayed tapestry
Dispelling dark resonances
Storming the depths of a grieving mourner
Melting moments for the strong to be weak
A feisty new resolve
To live
To heal
To move on
