A poem by Alfred Lord Tennyson

The Tears Of Heaven

________________________________________________
Title:     The Tears Of Heaven
Author: Alfred Lord Tennyson [More Titles by Tennyson]

Heaven weeps above the earth all night till morn,
In darkness weeps, as all ashamed to weep,
Because the earth hath made her state forlorn
With selfwrought evils of unnumbered years,
And doth the fruit of her dishonour reap.
And all the day heaven gathers back her tears
Into her own blue eyes so clear and deep,
And showering down the glory of lightsome day,
Smiles on the earth's worn brow to win her if she may.






[The end]
