    Tears Of A poet...

     the tears of a poet are not wet 
    their dripping letters waiting to set 
    upon yon paper 
    of a whispering vapor 

    I've seen them fall 
    as I recall 
    and not a pain was there 
    in its place was laughter and care 
    and no hurt I ever saw 

    but hidden inside 
    of all this pain 
    was joy and sadness 
    from the tears of a poet 
    whom somehow 
    had already fortold it

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
