Poetic Pearls

A mother knows the pains of child bearing, The forest knows the pains of weathering, The pianist knows the pains of producing The sweetest notes from the saddest feelings. The gardener knows the pains of fallen leaves, The lagoon that loses its water in the sand Knows the pains of desertification. Sorrow sings in the melancholy of a mourning dove. The deeper the pain, the sweeter is the song. The saddest bird croons the sweetest song. Sometimes, the best of the poetic pearls Emanate from the tears and pathos of pain.
