Question
Describe the ending of the poem. How does the rain associate itself with various objects of nature and emotions of human beings?

Answer

Kahlil Gibran gives a philosophical and emotional overtone while ending the poem. The rain becomes 'the sigh' of the sea, 'the laughter' of the field and 'the tears' of heaven. It sighs from the deep sea of love and affection. It makes the spirit of man rejoice and laugh. The poet calls it the tears that come down from the 'endless heaven of memories'.
