IT RAINS....

                        RAIN on the ROOF by Coates Kinney (1826-1904)

When the humid shadows hover

over all the starry spheres....

And.....

the melancholy darkness

Gently.....

weeps in rainy tears

what a joy....

to press the pillow

Of a cottage

chamber bed..............

And to listen.........

to the patter

of the soft rain

Overhead....

 

                "Let the rain sing you a lullaby...." -Langston Hughes
