Monotone

THE monotone of the rain is beautiful,
And the sudden rise and slow relapse
Of the long multitudinous rain.
 
    The sun on the hills is beautiful,
Or a captured sunset sea-flung,
Bannered with fire and gold.
 
    A face I know is beautiful—
With fire and gold of sky and sea,
And the peace of long warm rain.
