Sunday Muse -- and I Cried
Dolly Cried
Why is that big tear
Did I stick you with a pin
Did I take you from your drink
Did I take your toy away
Please don't cry
Is it something I have said
Or something I haven't said
Maybe something I have done
Bigger than these
Something I have not done
Did I forget your birthday
Or our anniversary
When ladies cry
Sorry if I made you cry
I hate that, shouldn't happen
(Tough being in the dog house)

That ending made me smile Jim. Wishing you a great weekend.
So well said, Jim. I imagine your sweet wife has learned what a softie you are!
I was touched by your sense of helplessness in the face of a female's tears, Jim. Your gentle response says a lot about you.
I'm pretty sure you forgot your anniversary... again!
"Bigger than these

Most serious tears to attend to.
Happy Sunday

Such an endearing poem. Sweet indeed :)
Handkerchiefs at the ready?! :-)
The endearing side of Mr. Jim .... well done, my friend.
Oh, tears get to us all. We want to wipe them away, get rid of the reason for them. Sadly we too often don't carry the magic to erase pain.
Jim, I apologize to my wife every morning for anything I may have done in my sleep to offend, and for anything I am sure I will do today! 😉
Tears are definitely a spur to pause and pay closer attention.
Oh, yes, those "didn't do" are what get a man! They have no idea what it is they forgot. Sometimes tears just come though, not because of something done or not done. It feels good to let them out.
