Beauty of whatever kind,
in its supreme development,
invariably excites the sensitive soul to tears.
~Edgar Allan Poe
I’ve found it useful
in terms of my mascara
to carry a tissue
pretty well
wherever I go
Just in case
my heart opens to music
I see a smile
hear a story
or feel in awe
of a tiny miracle
in the world around me.
