Hollow minds shed tears
Oh! How strong a tear is..
To bring a change with ease..!
Just a drop of tears is stronger
Than hours of speech whatsoever! !
Be it the ruler, or spouse
Or the girl of your house
Shedding one drop of tear
Could tumble you to wither
And drives you hither and thither!
That salty tear after a success
Equals the sweat of hard labour..!
Tears.. convey untold message
The one aft a repent as a sage
Another one in full happiness
Are nothing but a great bliss!
Thy tears shall not trigger one's cry
Better, it's hidden from everyone's eye
Like the one in a monsoon rain
Goes unseen but not in vain!
Wasted were my tears by some foes
Yet lots of them I save for future use
When happy moments come in my way
And to reckon and repent if need be!
Just a little smile is bigger indeed
Than many million gallons of flood
Flowing out of a dam in the wood!
..
The price of a tear is exhorbitantly high
While a smile is of yours has no price!
For even sorrows go shortlived and perish
And all days without smile and laughter
Are nothing but a waste without any life!
TEARS ARE NOT TO BE WASTED AND LAUGHTER IS NOT TO BE RESERVED OR REGULATED - well said Sir.
Thank you so much for grasping the underlying meaning!
