In time of silver rain <br />The earth puts forth new life again, <br />Green grasses grow <br />And flowers lift their heads, <br />And over all the plain <br />The wonder spreads <br /> <br />Of Life, <br />Of Life, <br />Of life! <br /> <br />In time of silver rain <br />The butterflies lift silken wings <br />To catch a rainbow cry, <br />And trees put forth new leaves to sing <br />In joy beneath the sky <br />As down the roadway <br />Passing boys and girls <br />Go singing, too, <br /> <br />In time of silver rain When spring <br />And life <br />Are new.<br /><br />Langston Hughes<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/in-time-of-silver-rain-2/
