RAIN AGAIN
Once more the down-pour comes, Well, let it rain. We can be placed here behind the pane, Watching a fluid world through streaming glass. What though We meant to sport upon tho grass, Eating our meal in gypsy ecstasy, Plucking the wild fruit from the cherry tree! We have our books to read while hailstones clink, And better yet we have our thoughts to think — Castles to build and raze and rear again; And good, much good, to ponder. Let it rain. —Margaret Ashmun.
