Moments in a minor key

HOW BEAUTIFUL IS THE RAIN

Another glorious Summers day!!!

How beautiful is the rain! 
After the dust and heat, 
In the broad and fiery street, 
In the narrow lane, 
How beautiful is the rain!
How it clatters along the roofs, 
Like the tramp of hoofs 
How it gushes and struggles out 
From the throat of the overflowing spout!
Across the window-pane 
It pours and pours; 
And swift and wide, 
With a muddy tide, 
Like a river down the gutter roars 
The rain, the welcome rain!
By Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
