"The rain makes the grass look green and fresh. It helps the flowers grow.
"The corn which we plant in the field could not grow if there was no rain."
"But, mother," said Lucy, "I do not like the rain very well. It makes me stay in the house when I want to go and play.
See how fast it rains! I shall have to stay at home all day."

evening west clouds those fade
It is evening, and the sun is about to set. The day will soon be gone.
Let us sit here on the soft grass and look at the bright clouds in the west.
Do you think there is any rain in those little clouds?
Oh, no! Those are not rain clouds.
