Introduction
The poem ‘Song Of The Rain,’ by Khalil Gibran, is written in the first
person. The rain is communicating straight to the audience. Raindrops
define themselves as a dotted silver thread, a messenger of
compassion, a welcoming feeling, a deep sea of affection, and other
things.
Theme
Rain is one of nature’s most heavenly manifestations, bringing delight
to all living things. Raindrops are magnificent pearls taken from the
goddess Ishtar’s crown by Dawn’s daughter. Ishtar is a goddess
who is associated with fertility, love, conflict, and romance. She
was the ‘divine embodiment of the planet Venus’ in the Babylonian
pantheon.
