A Day of Rain and Sorrow

She wept, she wept all through the day,
She wept into the night;
And neither sun nor misty moon
Dared penetrate her sight.

She wept until the water flowed
In rivulets and rills;
She wept as if she could not stop.
But now her weeping stills.

There, silently, in one small flash,
A star peeks through the tears
It glimmers briefly in the clouds
And then it disappears.
