I cry for the beauty of the world.

I cry for the pain.

I cry for the feelings that are gone,

And for those that will come back again.

I cry for the sun

and for the stars.

For the memory of you holding me in your arms.

I cry for the trees, the flowers, the birds.

I cry for the day

I will hear those three special words.

I am a poet,

a dreamer,

a muse.

Meandering through life

finding what I can use.

I’ll share with you-

my reader, my friend.

Anytime you have

an open ear to lend.

If tears should fall right next to mine,

We’ll forever be connected in space and time.
