January 14, Poem #6 Watery Eyes

Watery Eyes
By Melody Beerbower

That little trickle in my eye
Does not mean I'm about to cry.
It simply means, in a manner of speaking,
That my indoor plumbing's leaking.

My eyes must think it terribly fun
To be constantly on the run
With no logical reason at all
Save to make others think I bawl. 

I try to wipe the tears away
In the most inconspicuous way,
But no matter which method I keep trying
Someone always thinks that I am crying.
