Jesus wept. John 11:35


Don’t waste water they say 

but there is always 

the same amount of water

on earth 

but something cannot 

come from nothing

I know all about evaporation 

cloud formation 

precipitation

At least as much 

as basic science classes explain

But when I think about 

all the hungry children in the world

I can’t help but think water

maybe 

maybe starts as tears 

from the eyes of God
