    Tears Of A poet...

     the tears of a poet are not wet 
    their dripping letters waiting to set 
    upon yon paper 
    of a whispering vapor 

    I've seen them fall 
    as I recall 
    and not a pain was there 
    in its place was laughter and care 
    and no hurt I ever saw 

    but hidden inside 
    of all this pain 
    was joy and sadness 
    from the tears of a poet 
    whom somehow 
    had already fortold it
