Rain

by Tammarigan Tyrsdaughter

Hail Thee, life-giving rain -

The Sky sends Thee
The Earth receives Thee
Seed in growing time
Tears in dying time

Whyfore thou weepest?
- The Earth is falling asleep

Whyfore thou cryest?
- The Sky is sad of heart

Grass-children had bowed low
Leaf-children had fallen low
No life without death
No seed without tears.

Hail Thee, life-giving rain...
