Tears For Many Reasons. Poem by David Boyce

Tears for many reasons.

Tears for many reasons,
Within a group or all alone,
Sad tears when a life is taken,
Happy tears when a child is born.

Tears flow from many eyes,
The young and the old,
Many tears after someone's passing,
When you need to be consoled.

Tears of happiness and kindness,
When you are overjoyed,
A birth of someone special,
No matter if it's a girl or a boy.

Don't ever stop those tears,
When emotions are very high,
It's a release for many reasons,
And sometimes it's good to cry.
