A Drop Fell on the Apple Tree - 
Another - on the Roof - 
A Half a Dozen kissed the Eaves - 
And made the Gables laugh - 
 
A few went out to help the Brook 1 
That went to help the Sea - 
Myself Conjectured 2 were they Pearls - 
What Necklace could be - 
 
The Dust replaced, in Hoisted 3 Roads - 
The Birds jocoser sung - 
The Sunshine threw his Hat away - 
The Bushes - spangles flung - 
 
The Breezes brought dejected Lutes - 
And bathed them in the Glee - 
Then Orient showed a single Flag, 
And signed the Fete away - 
 
A drop of rain fell on the apple tree, and this is a very ordinary thing. However, in her eyes, it actually turned into a dynamic poem full of joy. Peruse 5 the verbs in this poem at your leisure, and enjoy the fresh and jubilant rain! 
 
At first, it starts with a tiny raindrop felling on an apple tree, followed with another drop on the roof. Several drops of rain water drip from the roof, the gables responding with cheerful sound. The rainfall is also essential to every day cycles. Emily explains this quite nicely in the second stanza 6: a few raindrops make an adventure to the brook and put water back into the sea. And she fascinates a beautiful necklace made of raindrops as if they were pearls. 
 
The rain also takes away all the dust on the roads, accompanied by the singing of birds. Fruits in the orchard 7 are swaying gently and shiny in the wind. Finally, the genteel sunshine met his lovely acquaintances - raindrops; with the hat off, he bowed politely. 
 
Lute 4 is a plucked string instrument, whose sound is feeble. Emily compares the voice of wind to Lute's sound, which is like the weeping and complaining from a sad person. However, raindrops are such happy little angels. They invites the wind to play an ensemble 8 of felicity movement. In addition to the meaning of joy, glee stands for duet a cappella. A clever fancy the pattering of the rain landing on the ground as a duet a cappella. It must have been raining for the whole day and night.
