(based on a true pair of eyes)
You wiped them away many times
Those little diamonds
You said they were sweet
Though they tasted of salt
Drops ran and moved you
Diamonds of water
Salty and flowing unashamed
You'd kiss them away
One day you caused them
Not through joy
You threw me a tissue
Where the salt crystals dried
I looked at you
Hands remaining in pockets
Now the feeling was sour
Salt was sweet no more
Hurt is a mighty force
She's always there to create a sparkle
Water and salt with no grains
Yet still stings the eye.

Much Too Tasty!
Too much salt is on those chips
Will give you cracked and dried up lips!
Make you drink a ton of water
In moderation is how you oughta
Shake that cellar in you hand
How can I make you understand...?
It's not too healthy but tastes nice
Oh, won't you take my rude advice!!
You need your kidneys working fine
On dialysis you'll spend your time!
Just cut down, gradual, bit by bit
It's best to calm this salty hit!
Too much salt is on those chips
Will give you dry and scraggy lips
So if it shows upon your face
Why let your insides go to waste...?!
Fabulous prompt! Last piece in memory of my bossy old gran to my oldest brother.......
