with pain, grit, and every trial
that brought you
here-
standing atop the world
as you gape an' beam back on the trail
you've carved. . .
happy tears.

Happy tears;
sprinkling joy on the grass in the lawn,
as you-dance!
barefoot till dawn.

Happy tears:
one
by
one
they start to
fall-
happy tears-
and I want to bottle them
all.
