Tears of Joy

May your eyes drown in tears of joy. When felicity in the heart Overflows its bank, It breaks the bridge of the eyes Stroll it's gutters And cascades down the cheek. It leaves perpetual scars of smile on the face, Tunes of love in the ears, Passion running through the veins And everlasting thoughts of goodness in the mind. Not all tears that ooze from the eyes, Are as a result of spears of pain that pierce the heart. Some tears are citizens in the land of joy That rule over fear and loneliness Trample pain under its feet And rain merry to fortify troubled soul ...Stranja
