Not in the time of pleasure <br />Hope doth set her bow; <br />But in the sky of sorrow, <br />Over the vale of woe. <br /> <br />Through gloom and shadow look we <br />On beyond the years! <br />The soul would have no rainbow <br />Had the eyes no tears.<br /><br />John Vance Cheney<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/tears-365/
