Theme of the rain by w h davies?

Answer 1

Davies combines his innocent pleasures of spiritual enjoyment and the stark reality of social discrimination in The Rain thereby creating a dual affect on his readers. His personality is so intricately integrated that he seems to be unable in separating his deep concern for the adverse circumstances of the poor and his innocent love for the beautiful phenomenon of nature, rain. The unfair distribution of wealth in the modern mercenary society is equally painful for him as is delightful the charming beauty of nature. Neither overtakes nor underestimates the other. Purposeful poetry finds an exquisite expression in this short poem. And there comes the benevolent Sun who shines equally upon all. Take it divine or human, the element of moral goodness is not absent from the subject matter, leaving alone the generosity of those who care for the poor. And this noise of rainfall on leaves is thus a melody for him for the smallest act of humane kindness may provide him with gladness though not the solace.
