Classic and Contemporary Poetry
RAIN, by MARGARET MCCORMICK
First Line: A man sinned today
Last Line: . . . Me.
Subject(s): Water
First Line: A man sinned today
Last Line: . . . Me.
Subject(s): Water
A man sinned today
And God, seeing, wept
Crystals, jewelling
The way.
Some dashed
Against my pane;
Some tapped the tin roof
Tumbling into
The drain.
A window
I would be
Or even the pipe
God's handkerchief
. . . Me.
