Like the touch of rain she was
On a man's flesh and hair and eyes
When the joy of walking thus
Has taken him by suprise:
With the love of the storm he burns,
He sings, he laughs, well I know how,
But forgets when he returns
As I shall not forget her "Go now."
Those two words shut a door
Between me and the blessed rain
That was never shut before
And will not open again.
