As I sit the tears flow
First one then another
One by one
With unknown reason
Glistening with facets of beauty
Unknown struggles pain and love
They streak my cheeks
One by one
Captured in the jar
Of God's love
His little diamonds
Held tightly in His love
Polished with His gentle grace
His precious diamonds
The tears that flow
Unknown gifts of beauty
Held tightly in His love
Each a stained tear gift
Of rare beauty to behold
These tears that flow
One by one
With unknown reason
A glistening diamond to behold
In the hands that hold me
~ Beth ~
Do you ever have tears that flow for no apparent reason?

Thanks for commenting on my post and my gift...I loved this poem and I am going to share it on my Facebook as a Note to my friends...contributed to your blog of course...It was beautiful....
This is so beautiful; I like how you wrote about tears. Sometimes crying/tears are viewed with negativity, that it is not good to cry, crying makes one weak, etc. But I find tears to be very healing and soothing at times and I am reminded that God does keep a jar of our tears (or in my case, I like to think I'll see a lake in heaven with my name on it with all my tears). I frequently have tears that flow for no reason and conversely also for reasons.
I am glad you wrote such a poem and shared it. May your day be a kind one.
Oh Bethe this is so beautiful and touching. You have such a beautiful way of expressing your feelings and tears. Tears are beautiful diamonds that God puts in a jar, wiped from an angel's face. You are a truly gifted angel. Thank you sooo much for posting my blog. I love you and your beautiful poem.. Blessings to you my dear friend.. Susie
I agree Bethe, that poem is so beautiful and very touching. You do have a lovely way with words.
Very Lovely Poem Beth!!!
What a gift you have with words and feelings! You expressed yourself so beautifully here.
I feel like sometimes tears just have to spill out from within us, and release the pent up feelings.
Have a blessed Sunday!
