Jennifer Juniper is a song and single by Donovan, released in 1968. It charted in the UK and USA. It was written about Jennifer Boyd, sister of Pattie. She married Mick Fleetwood and was, at one time, the sister-in-law of George Harrison and, later, Eric Clapton.
The B-side "Poor Cow" is a song produced for the film Poor Cow by Ken Loach. The original title of the song was "Poor Love". The title was changed when the song appeared in the film. It retained that title when released as the b-side to "Jennifer Juniper" in February of 1968. "Poor Cow" is introduced by Donovan as "Poor Love" on his live album Donovan in Concert (1968).
The names "Jennifer" and "Juniper" are etymologically the same.
