A River Of Tears

Thoughts on the sorrows man faces.

A river of tears
for far too many years
sorrows fall like rain
lives are brimmed with pain
tears stream from so many eyes
how we need help from the skies
misfortune never seems to lack
no one should feel their lives swept black
When will the river of tears dry
when will we grasp help from the sky
when will man never do harm, when?
when will man turn to caring within
No lives should be brimmed with pain
sorrows mustn't fall like rain
for far too many years
we've cried a river of tears

The flow of this poem is perfect, we can only hope one things will change and there won't be so many rivers of tears. Great piece

[Susie Q]

Very emotional & sad poem. We must hope the tears will one day dry & pain will be gone. There will be a brighter day as long as we hold on to our faith.

[Black Cat Fever]

Yes the world does cry a River of Tears, so many sorrows indeed.
But we must have hope we can have many days of smiles too.

[Coyote Song]

Yes, the world is full of pain and we could probably all drown in all the tears that have been shed.
A brilliantly done poem Eric.

[Star Wolf]

A very sad poem indeed. Impressive job crafting it. It rings true. So many tears are shed in this world...so much unhappiness and the reason why can't be seen. Instead the blame game is played.

[Miss Owl]

Sometimes life seems so hopeless, no matter who you are or what age you are.
We look for hope on high. A splendid poem.

[Wolf's Dark Song]

Such an important question and one that always seems to remain unanswered. Perhaps we are unable to see the answer or understand. An extraordinary poem. I sure enjoyed it.

[Tina Kline]
