One tear today, one love tomorrow <br />My heart springs from everyday sorrow. <br />A light blue, a scarlet red <br />into my soul those colors spread. <br />The hand of love me clenched and said <br />‘Your sorrow is my love, my love your sorrow <br />to this I pledge and to this do wed' <br />Then my love cried with rain in my head <br />And declared to me that sorrow from joy must always borrow, <br />so one tear today can be one love tomorrow. <br />My heart sprang like the flowers in spring, <br />as her voice sang, that beautiful thing. <br />To sorrow, to love, to joy I sing…..<br /><br />Kevin Michael Murphy<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-heart-spring/
