What do the boys and girls do in happiness answer fast urgent​

Answer 1

Answer:

n time of silver rain

The earth puts forth new life again,

Green grasses grow

And flowers lift their heads,

And over all the plain

The wonder spreads

 

Of Life,

Of Life,

Of life!

In time of silver rain

The butterflies lift silken wings

To catch a rainbow cry,

And trees put forth new leaves to sing

In joy beneath the sky

As down the roadway

Passing boys and girls

Go singing, too,

In time of silver rain When spring,

And life,

Are new.

Theme/ Central Idea:

Through the poem ‘In time of silver rain’, the poet Langston Hughes, tells us that the rain brings beauty and happiness all around.

About the poet:

Langston Hughes was an American writer and activist, who won many awards and honours for his work. He started a new style of writing poetry in which rhythm and spontaneous expression are important. In this poem, he describes how rain brings joy and life.

Paraphrasing:

Langston Hughes, the poet beautifully describes the earth in time of silver rain. He says, when it rains, the earth produces new life again. Green grasses grow all over and flowers raise their heads. The wonder of life spreads all over the plain. During the silver rain, the butterflies lift their silken wings to catch a rainbow. Trees bear new leaves to sing in joy under the sky. Boys and Girls, passing by also join them and sing in the time of silver rain. In the time of silver rain the spring and life are both new.

Summary:

1st stanza:

The poet begins the poem with the title itself and describes the rain as silver rain. Why is the poet calling the rain as silver rain? Perhaps because he remembers the proverb, “Every cloud has a silver lining.” Or perhaps when the rain drops shine they look silver in colour.
