Tears can be a healthy release
Rain cleanses and dampens the dust
Flowing water is gently calming
Anything in moderation heals our inner rust
Extremes bring damage we don’t need
Mental health, floods or even drowning
Go easy on yourself
Best for our complete health
Kind care brings limitless wealth!

Water, tears are purification. The most important words are not to poison your life with trinkets.
A fearsome, reflective poem. I wish you all good days and life in joy and happiness.
