[00:00.16]Monotone
[00:01.99]
[00:03.47]The monotone of the rain is beautiful,
[00:06.54]And the sudden rise and slow relapse
[00:09.00]Of the long multitudinous rain.
[00:11.68]
[00:12.40]The sun on the hills is beautiful,
[00:15.36]Or a captured sunset see-flung,
[00:18.37]Bannered with fire and gold.
[00:21.57]
[00:23.12]A face I know is beautiful--
[00:26.03]With fire and gold of sky and sea,
[00:31.02]And the peace of long warm rain.
[00:37.62]
