Crying

Crying only a little bit

is no use. You must cry

until your pillow is soaked!

Then you can jump in the shower

and splash-splash-splash!

Then you can throw open

your window

and, “Ha, ha! ha ha!”

And if people say, “Hey,

what's going on up there?”

“Ha ha!” sing back, “Happiness

was hiding in the last tear!

I wept it! Ha ha!”
