Garden In The Rain

5  5  6  6 -6 -6   7
I recall a summer day 

 7   -7  -7  6  6    -5    -5 -6
When you and I had strolled away;

-6   5  5 5 -5   6     6   6
And suddenly a storm drew nigh.

 5  5    6  6    -6  -6   7
Seeking shelter from the rain

7   7  7     6  6 -5 -5  -6
We hurried down a little lane

-6    5   5  5  5  -5    -5  6
And found a lovely sight nearby.

  7    7   7 -7 -6  6  -6    6
'Twas just a garden in the rain,

-6   -6  -6   6 5   5
Close to the leafy lane.

-4  5   -6  6 -6   7     4   -4   5
A touch of color 'neath skies of gray.

7    7    7    -7    -6   6 -6  6
The raindrops kissed the flowerbeds;

-6  -6  -6     6     -5    5 -5     5
The blossoms raised their thirsty heads,

-4 5  -5     6    -6    7    4     -4  4
A perfumed 'thank you' they seemed to say.

-3 4     5   -4   -5   
Surely there was charm

 5  6   -4 -6  -6  -6
beyond compare to view

-3 4   5 -4   -5   5  -6  6   -7   -7   -7
Maybe it was just that I was there with you.

  7    7   7 -7 -6   6 -6   6
'Twas just a garden in the rain

-6   -6  -6   6   -5   5  -5 5
But then the sun came out again

-4   5  -5   6 -6 7 4   -4   4
And sent us happily on our way.
