The Little Rain By: TU FU

Oh! She is good, the little rain! She knows our needWho cometh in the time of springto aidThe sun-drawn seed;She wanders with a friendly windthroughSilent nights unseen,The furrows feel her happy tears,and lo! The land is greenLast night, cloud-shadows gloomedThe path that winds to my abode,And the torches of the river boatsLike angry meteors glowed.Today, fresh colors break the soil, andButterflies take wingDown, 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.
