May 24
Life has dealt harshly with me at times  
Throughout the passing years,
But with Love to guide me through each trial,
There was no need for tears

Though wealth never sought my company
Nor on my footpath tread,
The treasure of Love belonged to me,
So not a tear was shed

How many dreams ended on a heap,
Hewn by Fate's reckless shears!
But I had Love to encourage me  . . .
I gave no thought to tears

Then a dark cloud hovered overhead --
Love had abandoned me;
Now, ever since that heart-wrenching day,
My tears flow endlessly
