The Little Rain

By: TU FU
Oh! She is good, the little rain!
She knows our need
Who cometh in the time of spring to aid
The sun-drawn seed;
She wanders with a friendly wind through
Silent nights unseen,
The furrows feel her happy tears,
and lo! The land is greenLast night, cloud-shadows gloomed
The path that winds to my abode,
And the torches of the river boats
Like angry meteors glowed.
Today, fresh colors break the soil, and
Butterflies take wing
Down, broidered lawns all bright with
POEM INTERPRETATION :
The poet is celebrating the gentle rain which falls and revives all in the world.
This rain aids the blossoming flowers of Spring and brings beauty and hope
back into the world.
The night before this gentle rain the world did not seem as cheerful and the
poet is edgy as the clouds loom but the morning brings the result of the
night's rains and the Spring flowers have set.
