A Man’s Grief
It came on suddenly— the cloud.
It happened when the father said:
“Men don’t cry,”
and lasted through the years–the cloud.
He did not cry.
The cloud covered the place
where tears are stored
until one day
the cloud was torn,
and he felt once again
the place where tears are born
There was no stopping the rain
