As Tears Raced On Hot Cheeks Poem by Doris Cornago

As Tears Raced On Hot Cheeks

Rating: 5.0


Dark earth beneath my feet
Nestles intrepid seeds
Fragile, meek, roots
Creep, shoots out
Tiny leaves like
Many fingers
Few crystal
Droplets
Starts
Life
As
Tears
Raced on
Hot cheeks
Stirring my
Heart, giving
Hope to minds
Your tiny fingers
Touching every fiber
Finding me like I am
Soft, meek and hurting
Flowers blossom, pollens
Scatter, in a dark universe
Where a million seeds settle
Dark thoughts filtered by care

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
There is darkness around us - below and above. Questions about our universe remain unanswered for most of our lives but that does not prevent life from springing out and continuing. Poems as pollens bring hope, every expressed thought becomes a seed. The poet is grateful for poets and poems which light her dark universe.

Beautiful poem Doris. Poetry is a kind of light for poets where they can shine their light for others in this dark universe.10

Hi Nudershada. You're right and your name says that conviction. Our darkness is as beautiful as the light within. Thank you for dropping in. :)

Hi Bro. Bernard. Our duality is who we are - the resulting struggle completes the circle, a yinyang. :)
