Don'T Cry a River of Tears

D-on't cry a river of tears, 
O-n twenty-second December; 
N-ever think about heartache, 
A-s you rise up from slumber. 
L-et Wednesday pain pass, 
Y-our life must feel the mirth; 
N-either fret nor sorrow shall spoil the day of your birth. 

R-aindrop on Thursday morn 
I-s nowhere to be found; 
V-ile weather has vanished, 
E-vening chill is turned around. 
R-emember not the past, for yesterday disappears; 
A-llow your eyes to twinkle, don't cry a river of tears.
