TWO LITTLE DROPS OF RAIN.

HEY fell together from the sky, Two little drops of rain; One cheered a blossom like to die, One fell upon the plain. One made the thirsty wilderness A lovely blooming place; One came a drooping flower to bless, And give it light and grace. The flower gave out a fragrance sweet, That lingered by the way; The wilderness amid the heat Seemed sweet and cool that day. They did the work they had to do, And, when the day was done, Two raindrops went back to the blue, Drawn upwards by the sun.
