TEARS BEJEWELLED HER CHEEKS

 

Tears bejewelled her cheeks

Like lustrous pearls

And her heartfelt sobs shook

The Ribbons from her curls

Those tears and sobs you only hear

From broken hearted girls

 

I couldn’t ignore the anguished

Sound of her cries

So I lifted up her chin 

And wiped the tears from her eyes

Then I held her in my arms

As her sobs turned to sighs

 

And when I looked at her

Tearstained face I could see

A girl as fragile as a butterfly

A thing of infinite beauty

And when she smiled

It was like a sunset on the sea
