A Tear And A Smile Comments

A work of an intricate mind, very powerfully and movingly penned....

Well expressed thoughts and feelings nicely brought forth with clarity artistic brilliance.

A tear to purify my heart and give me understanding Of life's secrets and hidden things. A smile to draw me nigh to the sons of my kind and To be a symbol of my glorification of the gods. A tear to unite me with those of broken heart; A smile to be a sign of my joy in existence. superb and extra ordinary writing great 10+++++++++++

I think this is one of the most beautiful poems ever written, always admired Khalil Gibran.

I would not exchange my sorrows of my heart With the joy of the multitude- -super. Me too

Line after line of eloquent and beautiful poetry- -] A tear to unite me with those of broken heart; / A smile to be a sign of my joy in existence./ I would rather that I died in yearning and longing than that I live Weary and despairing.

“The life of clouds is a parting and a meeting. A tear and a smile.”- very meaningful lines meant for life; parting and meeting, a tear and a smile.

I understand A Tear And A Smile as- Joy and Sorrow to be treasured as they are special and exclusive to us. My sorrow no match to some one else's as it is mine. My joy no match to someone else's as it is mine I love my sorrow as I cherish my joy as both are mine. As life is mine and death is mine
