THE SUMMER RAIN.
When parched and dewless is the ground,
And wither'd herb and flower,
New life is spread the earth around,
As falls the summer shower.
Each drooping flower new strength receives,
And brightly blooms again,
As gently falls upon its leaves
The cool refreshing rain.
Then, when the clouds has pass'd away,
How radiant all appears,
The rain drops glitter on each spray,
Like childhood's laughing tears!
