Answer:          Rain on the Roof

Coates Kinney (1826–1904)

 

WHEN the humid shadows hover  

 Over all the starry spheres,  

And the melancholy darkness  

 Gently weeps in rainy tears,  

What a bliss to press the pillow         5

 Of a cottage-chamber bed,  

And to listen to the patter  

 Of the soft rain overhead!  

 

Every tinkle on the shingles  

 Has an echo in the heart;         10

And a thousand dreamy fancies  

 Into busy being start,  

And a thousand recollections  

 Weave their air-threads into woof,  

As I listen to the patter         15

 Of the rain upon the roof.  

 

Now in memory comes my mother,  

 As she used, in years agone,  

To regard the darling dreamers  

 Ere she left them till the dawn:         20

O! I see her leaning o’er me,  

 As I list to this refrain  

Which is played upon the shingles  

 By the patter of the rain.  

 

Then my little seraph sister,         25

 With the wings and waving hair,  

And her star-eyed cherub brother—  

 A serene angelic pair!—  

Glide around my wakeful pillow,  

 With their praise or mild reproof,         30

As I listen to the murmur  

 Of the soft rain on the roof.  

 

And another comes, to thrill me  

 With her eyes’ delicious blue;  

And I mind not, musing on her,         35

 That her heart was all untrue:  

I remember but to love her  

 With a passion kin to pain,  

And my heart’s quick pulses vibrate  

 To the patter of the rain.         40

 

Art hath naught of tone or cadence  

 That can work with such a spell  

In the soul’s mysterious fountains,  

 Whence the tears of rapture well,  

As that melody of nature,         45

 That subdued, subduing strain  

Which is played upon the shingles  

 By the patter of the rain.
