Those tiny pearls fall from the eyes
And settles well on an aching heart
Sacred gems of precious emotions
The one who sheds also collects
The lost pain finds its bearer again
Every drop carries a longing wish
Labelled hopes, Ernest’s desires
Jewellery made of grieving tears
On display yet finds no buyers
One last time, the griever aspires
A final gift to the uncaring world
A sole ornament of raw sentiments
The valued artefact ever to be worn around
One to be Loved, admired and appreciated
Oddly, centuries after its maker is dead!

Lovely!
