THE VOICE OF THE RAIN, Walt Whitman.<\/p>\n

AND who art thou? said I to the soft-falling shower,
\nWhich, strange to tell, gave me an answer, as here translated:
\nI am the Poem of Earth, said the voice of the rain,
\nEternal I rise impalpable out of the land and the bottomless sea,
\nUpward to heaven, whence, vaguely formed, altogether changed, and yet the same,
\nI descend to lave the drouths<\/a>, atomies<\/a>, dust-layers of the globe,
\nAnd all that in them without me were seeds only, latent, unborn,
\nAnd forever, by day and night, I give back life to my own origin, and make pure
\nand beautify it:
\n(For song, issuing from its birth-place, after fulfillment, wandering,
\nRecked or unrecked, duly with love returns.)<\/p>\n
