When the humid shadows hoverOver all the starry spheresAnd the melancholy darknessGently weeps in rainy tears.What a bliss to press the pillowof a cottage-chamber bedAnd lie listening to the patterof the soft rain overhead!Every tinkle on the shinglesHas an echo in the heart:And a thousand dreamy fanciesInto busy being start.And a thousand recollectionsWeave their air-threads into woof.As I listen to the patterof the rain upon the roofNow in memory comes my mother,As she used in years agone.To regard the darling dreamersEre she left them till the dawnO! I feel her fond look on meAs I list to this refrainWhich is played upon the shinglesBy the patter of the rainCOATS KNINNEY 1. what is considered as a bliss in the extract? 2. where does the poet lie? 3. what does the poet do after lying? |

Answer» Answer: From the TITLE of the Poem-‘RAIN on the ROOF’, we can make out that the poem is about the rain. The poet is telling us about the memories he has of the rain. The sound of the raindrops falling on the roof of his house brings back sweet memories of the PAST. |
