I hear the sound of the rain

Gently falling down the window pane

I hear the sound of leaves drinking rain

And the sound of trees in pain

As they shed wet leaves on ground in the rain

I hear rich leaves getting wet on the top

Drop after drop

It creates a mellifluous sound to hear

As these green leaves are drinking near

Creating an aura to cheer

I sooner see the sun beams coming out

Which spreads wondrous light all about

I keep hoping the sun shines bright

And it will be a splendid sight

To be cherished till night
