In Time Of Silver Rain By Langston Hughes [ Photo with Poem / Experiment09 ]

This time, I will first look at the picture I chose that goes well with this poem. 

This poem In Time Of Silver Rain expresses the beauty of spring with the word very active silver rain.

Then, while imagining what a picture of a silver rain scene would look like, I found a picture that I thought was a little suitable.


In Time Of Silver Rain


I took this photo of a yellow tulip that has not yet bloomed. Flowers are beautiful even when they are in full bloom, but I prefer the way they looked before they just bloomed.

If you liked the picture above, let's meet a much more beautiful poem written in the title.


In Time Of Silver Rain  

By Langston Hughes


In time of silver rain

The earth puts forth new life again,

Green grasses grow

And flowers lift their heads,

And over all the plain

The wonder spreads


  Of Life,

  Of Life,

  Of life!


In time of silver rain

The butterflies lift silken wings

To catch a rainbow cry,

And trees put forth new leaves to sing

In joy beneath the sky

As down the roadway

Passing boys and girls

Go singing, too,


  In time of silver rain When spring

  And life

  Are new.


James Langston Hughes [1902-1967] is a black writer who was born and raised in the United States and later became a famous writer who graduated from Lincoln University. He began writing poetry when he was about 8 years old and absorbed black culture, leaving behind many poems and essays. 

Now let's take a look at the original picture.

This photo was taken on April 13, 2024 at Sampae Park in South Korea. This year's flowers are not in good overall condition. It dried up quickly because it didn't rain enough in spring, so the shape is not beautiful. But I found flowers that were in their best condition and took pictures.
