Tears will soothe the spirit.

Tears will soothe the spirit.
(For those who can relate)

There are feelings
Words cannot adequately express
And they erupt with intense might.
When words fail to recapture the mood
Tears flow and bathe the spirit.
A particular scent, a scene or song
Can resurrect images
That rested dormant in the mind.
Then the soul launches a search
That lands us back in time.
Today the song “O come all ye faithful” filled the air
And it immediately ushered in pictures
Of a mother mixing ingredients
For the Christmas cake
And the nostrils connected to the smell of pine
From a decorated tree that glowed.
The toys, ginger beer and sorrel attracted the eyes
But most touching, the smile from a mother
Who always breathe love.
She will not be here this Christmas
Already, she made the flight
But her charm and aura remain
For time will not erode the spark.
When the surge comes to take us back
And tongues cannot describe the joy
Tears will soothe the spirit.
