A MATTER OF TEAR-ENDIPITY

Folder: 
JOURNAL # 41
memories
so beautiful
arrive unannounced
unprejudiced and poignant
in their sweet affliction
sumptuous soldiers
that they are
as they rally about
preparing the fields

for further memorials to come
rain barrels the lot of us
ever collecting precious tokens
of spice
as we hide our sand secrets
from the harm doers who would
gladly ill use them against us
to confiscate such prize
terrible knots in the fabric of life
such individuals can only offer
no real sustainable cloth
just ragged tatters too often
re used
sparkling fool's gold
so many others prior
believed to be the real item..............

Author's Notes/Comments: 

just a mixed matter of good/bad fortune sometimes. The hybrid of tear and serendipity was just too wonderful to go unused. I hope you enjoy the near mind twisting effort I went through to come up with that snazzy little gem of a befitting title.............
