[hometext] => metaphor, symbol, analogy - who knows, but its deep, I tells ya....
[bodytext] => There’s the bench of the man who cried, who shed broad tears until he died day and night, for years he wept, we wondered when he ever slept! never knowing from whence he came, only that he leaked clear shame cried raw guilt and howled his rage, Like a beast frustrated by its cage. no inhibitions or regard, how can one man cry so hard? enquires met with snarling moan, till all left him well alone. the grieving echoed dark and long, the chorus of a collective song a pall so grim we were depressed by the constant pain of a soul distressed. disconsolate beyond all care, he wailed until his heart was bare and finally, the sadness spent, died after a long lament. Silence. not a falling leaf, the quietude of sheer relief the stillness we had long deplored given back as our reward lessons learned, we slowed our pace, revelling in our tranquil grace all now with eyes made wide, by the unknown man who cried and cried.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
