Tears

By Peace Tree Poetry

Have you touched the rain 
and let its pearls tapdance on your skin? a reminder that salvation rests 
with those who see beauty in a storm like the eyes of a museum observer 
in love with art. 
how often the drifting winds toss droplets onto umbrellas, 
how often people fear water 
yet forget we are made of it. 
walking oceans 
with hearts who cannot appreciate 
our own tears 
like the sea afraid of her waves.
