Salty saline solution
By punchy

Salty saline, adjacent to whine
Lacrimal glands they exude
Membranes are cleared, emotions released
An alternate state will conclude

I checked out tears in my dictionary and it said- Salty saline solution and it inspired me to write this poem , honest gov! 
Much like sweet sugar or wet water, mind you that last example is a bit shit!

Ha ha - Well, you have certainly got them here Punchy. I'm not sure that I quite understand either. What is the adjacent to whine? Is this something to do with your dog? No. It must be a puzzle. More likely that I am just thick though.

This is my crying poem. Salty saline was the dictionary description of tears and alongside is the "whine" that unbearable sound that comes out of my childrens mouths together with the tears. Lacriminal glands are where the tears come from literally and the scientific purpose for this is to clean the membranes on the surface of the eyes. Once the tears are shed we all feel better and happier! 
I hope that makes sense, if not just nod politely :grin
