Your Silver Tears

Your Silver Tears!
We saw you crying at Podbrdo
With our inner eyes,
Your kind eyes filled with tears of sorrow,
Reflecting the anguish of a turbulent century.
I saw your crystal tears drip down to your rosy cheeks
And falling on the stones of the rocky Podbrdo
With my inner eyes.
The sparkling dew drops,
On the vine leaves of Medjugorje
Reflecting your holy tears
And proclaiming "Ave Maria."

I heard your sobbing
Echoing between the hills of Medjugorje
With my heart and soul.
Restless Mother you are.
Who wouldn't be restless
When the children are perishing?
We cannot keep watching your tears anymore.
Our sighs and prayers would reach the stars in your crown
And they may wipe your motherly tears
Cascading down your cheeks.
............................................................................................................to be continue.
