Tell me, is the rose naked or is that her only dress? why do trees conceal the splendor of their roots? who hears the regrets of the thieving automobile? is there anything in the world sadder than a train standing in the rain?

More From Pablo Neruda

And what does the rain say at night in a small town, what does the rain have to say? who walks beneath dripping melancholy branches listening to the rain? who is there in the rain’s million-needled blurring splash, listening to the grave music of the rain at night, september rain, september rain, so dark and soft? who is there listening to steady level roaring rain all around, brooding and listening and waiting, in the rain-washed, rain-twinkled dark of night?

You'll be riding along in an automobile. you'll be the driver perhaps. you're a christian. there'll be several people in the automobile with you, maybe someone who is not a christian. when the trumpet sounds you and the other born-again believers in that automobile will be instantly caught away - you will disappear, leaving behind only your clothes and physical things that cannot inherit eternal life. that unsaved person or persons in the automobile will suddenly be startled to find the car suddenly somewhere crashes.

Let the rain kiss you. let the rain beat upon your head with silver liquid drops. let the rain sing you a lullaby. the rain makes still pools on the sidewalk. the rain makes running pools in the gutter. the rain plays a little sellp-song on our roof at night- and i love the rain.

Consider a tree for a moment. as beautiful as trees are to look at, we don't see what goes on underground - as they grow roots. trees must develop deep roots in order to grow strong and produce their beauty. but we don't see the roots. we just see and enjoy the beauty. in much the same way, what goes on inside of us is like the roots of a tree.
