How is it we cry tears of sadness And they taste of despair, Yet tears we also cry of gladness Taste of fresh summer air?
Nature’s cleansing balm I’d say Ridding us of emotion, Bitter sweet release in a way, Our calming, salty lotion!
These tears come easily to me, You’d think I’d have none left! Emotional and soft you see But it’s not that I’m bereft ~
I guess I’m just too sensitive beautiful things make me happy. sad tears make me tentative Where as joy just makes me sappy!
Tears are mentioned lots in verse In love, sadness and prose, Some see them as a nasty curse Or think of them as morose.
But tears are needed for the soul They replenish, heal and cleanse. They are required to make us whole Or see through a clearer lens! Artemis Copyright ©2009kerryguthrie[/center][/color]

Oh, Kerry
I think we are kindred spirits! I've always been told I'm "too sensitive." I also cry when I'm happy, sad, sometimes when I'm angry, and, especially, when I am touched by something. I was told by someone a long time ago that tears cleanse the soul. I truly believe that. Sometimes there's nothing like a good cry.
You are a beautiful spirit. I am so glad I'm getting to know you. You are special, Kerry. You "feel" so much and you have such empathy for others.
So, go on being "too sensitive", crying over the things you've mentioned, and please be "sappy"...I use that word, as well. Most of all, please never stop writing. You touch my soul and I've shed a tear this morning because of it.
Love Janet

Kerry, if you ever take note of anyone judging how you should or shouldn't react in any situation, you won't be "Kerry". This write shows strength and humility: your openness. If sappy suits you, keep on being sappy. H x
