So very lovely- I have chill bumps. Soft and engaging and full of beautiful language and imagery. I really like the idea of stringing them into a necklace- such a gentle appeal to the sends. Excellent. I thank you:) best, k

What a beautiful poem little one. Good tears are very good, as long as they are for good reasons. I hope they are. Glean from your work and desires the warmth you need on these cold days. I have a strong shoulder if you need to lean on it.

Shalom

Lovely, lovely poem, Jill! It's a very "womanly" distinction, but it's true - women can cry for positive reasons. The poem is attractive, musical and sexy, all at once. Delightful!

I enjoyed your post. We almost always associate tears with sadness. There certainly are tears associated with mirth, happiness and joy. Unusual structure to your work, but it was a pleasure to read and review. Bill

If I could save these good tears
I would collect them
in my toothbrush glass
like gifts of morning

An interesting poem with imagery, metaphors and carefully selected words to express the heart of the poet. Interesting form. Well done

Lovely picture and lovely message. We forget about the tears of joy and I thank you for bringing them to the forefront. Your "winged kisses" was especially precious.

If [i] could save these good tears - thought that should be in cap.

Interesting free verse poem on another dimension to tears. yes, there are happy tears, and even sad tears are best let out.
