Analysis of Heavy Rain
Hear the melodious sound of heavy rain
Each and every droplet entertains
A host of rhythms for my brain
Volleying 'gainst my window pane
Ye slumber to the soothing sound
Relax the soul when rain falls down
Among the cloud then to the ground
In the air and all around
Now drops flitter float fall down
