"The Rainy Day"
by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
‘The Rainy Day’ by Longfellow delves into despair, yet concludes with hope: behind every storm, the sun still shines.

While this isn’t one of Longfellow’s best-known or most loved poems, it is certainly powerful and one of the best about rain. Following a consistent rhyme scheme, the three stanzas of ‘The Rainy Day’ depict rain and the dark, drab misery it can bring with it. The first stanza describes the outward state of the world, the second the internal state of the poet, and the third transitions to the speaker’s attempts to improve his own mood.
The day is cold, and dark, and dreary;

It rains, and the wind is never weary;

The vine still clings to the mouldering wall,

But at every gust the dead leaves fall,

It will be delivered rolled in a heavy duty parcel tube.
