Full of rocks and bushes thorny

It is in our difficulties that we experience the most growth. Invaluable indeed are those precious teardrops. A simple yet very deep poem
When life looks like the summer the drunk tears appear as drops in the next rainy season. A great poem.
Thank you Akhtar Jawadji for reading my poem and your great comment.
very inspiring lines mam.... we all need to be strong enough to fight with our problems.....
Topic is certainly teardrop. Hide and drink this saline recalls a lot.I am sure, no poet can exactly pen the severity of this moment. Alive.But, you can do it. Kindly, retry it.
Thank you Bichitra Anand for your wonderful comment.Many times I go through the comments of my readers to get inspiration.
bharati, i was attracted to the title of this one, and i like, as in other poems of yours, how you say what you want to briefly—in, out, done. and what i like as well is that you avoid being sentimental. who of us doesn't need to remember the beautiful, what has moved us, to help our perspective through difficult times? this is why, as i understand it, the bible lays such stress on remembering the good. the part of this poem beginning with For my journey brings to my mind a poem of mine, the heart as tabernacle. it's mostly quite different than this one of yours. if you read it and are not familiar with the reference, the tabernacle was the temporary and moving tent where the israelites in their journey to the promised land went to meet God; it was a symbol of God's presence. hoping you are well, glen
Thank you Glen Kappy for reading and liking my poems.Yes, the term 'tabernacle'is totally new to me.We have some spaces in heart where we meet God, our Saviour.

Thanks to all the great minds who have added their beautiful comments here.
And I drink it As a drop of rain In hot Summer. Drinking your own tears .. so wonderful imagination dear Bharati. it touched me.
The value of a tear drop is priceless my friend!
Tears turn into joy when it's summer! Great allusion! Without tears the joys of life is meaningless. Great write. Keep writing Bharati!
Trials and tribulations strengthen us! They help us wade through the blistering deserts of life! Very succinct and poignant write!
A deep pour down from bottom of your heart! Very touching with a message to accept the life's hurdles and pleasures alike to move on!
good thought from a generous mind- thanks for sharing your nice thought
Compares a tear drop to water one might need for a journey under the hot sun of summer.
