[Critique Group 1] late substitute submission

[tuchyner5 at aol.com]

Hi Group 1,

 

Since Mary Jo can’t be with us for a few sessions because she is up to her neck in Boe work that she is doing for all of us, I thought, if no one has any objections, that I would submit a piece for Wednesday and participate in the critique process.  I hope submitting late will not be a problem. It is a short poem, witch is pasted below.

Love is Blessed with Salty Tears

                  by

     Leonard Tuchyner

             

 What heart cries not, in pain’s delight?

When senses quiver on climax brink

to fall and break on crashing waves,

resting supine in velvet tears.

 

A baby’s soul is born with screams,

as mother and child herald new life;

suffering transformed to joyousness;

tribulations soon forgotten ;

love bond nurtured by bursting breasts,

which quickened to a hungry cry.

Feast and feaster freshened to life.

 

Do you know of love that sheds not tears

in all its conceived-of sacred forms?

Life is born of love in all its ways,

And life’s adorned in salty tears.

Find solace in the mystery.
