January 29, 2010 - Tears of Joy


Tears of Joy

Tears of joy are different tears
Than those brought on by pain
Yet the emotions wrought in the soul
Are very near the same

These tears are felt as deeply
And as strong as their counterparts
As they purify and renew
Precisely the same heart

The beautiful thing about tears of joy
Is that in their shedding this they bring
Your grief and pain are scattered
As in your heart healing rings

Tears of joy really are different. They are even more emotional than tears of pain....A beautiful poem Neva.

tears...the expression of the heart liberate the emotion of the moment...
when I pain they surface to make the pain softer...when I rejoice they come to bless the moment...Balance and Harmonny to lay on my embrace...beautifully written !

Wonderfully expressive : sometimes the tears are born out of joy , and pain, together.
