Patter of the Rain Inspires Nostalgia and Love
A nostalgic poem recalls rainy nights and a cottage chamber as the speaker listens to rain on the roof. Images of a mother, siblings, and a past love mingle with nature's music, tracing memories and the heart's quiet pulses to the sound of rain. The verse honors nature’s subtler melodies over art’s bravura.
Fragmented quotes mix wit and history across a city page
A collage of aphorisms and snippets cites Washington and a secretary of state on merit and swearing, notes about a bachelor’s tears on marriage, and a line about mob rule, soldiers costs, civilians vexation, plus a rusting rusting oil trick and a Pittsburgh Post item on price per ton.
