Checked by www.howmanysyllables.com>syllable_counter ************************************************************** Summer Soft Rain at Night So sweet is the summer soft rain, at night, That kisses the fair petals of flowers, Nourishes thirsty plants, abates their plight And refreshes the surrounding bowers. So graceful is the summer gentle rain, That drifts away dust in towns and cities, Wafts away some of man`s sorrows and pains And lightens the burden of his worries. The music of summer soft rain, at night, Is to me like a delicious invite To scan the spark of the untainted light Of my inner self, gently sparkling bright. Summer soft rain at night, a divine grace, Is a gift that I will ever embrace.
