Poem Artwork

Negligence is the rust of the soul, that corrodes through all her best resolves. Owen Felltham




FOR TEARS CAN ALSO SOOTHE

Submerged in healing teardrops touch,
To polish~~shine ~~and purge
The tarnish that preceeded rust
Thru running water's dirge

Beneath the surface of pooled tears
Rests best~~ whats left~~ unsaid
And wash away cold waves of fears
To sink thru muddied beds

For when the tears are set to work
To polish~~ tarnish~~ smooth
No longer will the shadows lurk
For tears~~ can also~~soothe

I like how you seperated the words in the sentences, it really gives more impact to the meaning and sounds of the words. Good one!

A very soothing and lovely poem.



Our hearts can become like the jagged rocks

when we suffer heartbreak,

but like the rushing stream

that smooths those rough edges,

our tears can soothe the pain

provide salve for the wound

provide healing for the soul

Ahhhh! The agony and the ecstasy, Anita! Emotional cleansing that leads to deep inner healing and resolution is THE BEST - like a good shower and hair wash after a two-week campout! How many of us actually resist confronting the status quo and just let life rumble on while the rust of submerged emotion eats away at our inner core day after day... we can look so good on the outside but eventually the fragility begins to give way... Soothing and purging write, AS EVER!! Let the cleansing waters run through! Kudos to you, Lady A. Kate xx

I am a leaf
set adrift in life,
No matter which way
I twist and turn,
There is nothing
I can do,
But spin around
as teardrops fall
and think of you.

Brilliant - makes one think of the rust that gathers in the heart;
then cleansed by love and purity.

A message to soothe the soul. Your friend Bill
