Jeannie's Tears, Jeannie's Flowers

Folder: 
Love

For each and every tear you shed

I'm gonna plant a flower

And when you've shed enough of them

You'll have yourself a garden

The flowers in the center

Will be flowers sprung from pain

And all the other flowers

Will overpower them

These will be flowers from tears of happiness

These will be flowers from tears of joy

They will not be flowers from tears of pain

Caused by some boy

The flowers from tears of joy and happiness

Will then cover all the others

And what you will be left with

Will be like roses without thorns

Beautiful flowers to walk through barefoot

When you feel a tear welling in your eye

And the beauty that overcomes you

Will surely make you cry

But these are also tears of happiness

And what they'll do for you

Is cause yet more flowers to be planted

And bring more love to you

I wrote this poem just for you, Jeannie

I hope it made you smile

For even though love can be painful

It also makes life worthwhile.
