Bob Harris was a weatherman at a small television station. He worked for twenty years and during those twenty years, he felt that his life was boring.

Happy Rain on a Spring Night
Du Fu
Good rain knows its time right;
It will fall when comes spring.
With wind it steals in night;
Mute, it moistens each thing.
O'er wild lanes dark cloud spreads;
In boat a lantern looms.
Dawn sees saturated reds;
The town's heavy with blooms.
--Translated by Xu Yuanchong
This famous poem , with four couplets(对句),was written by Du Fu(712-770,Tang Dynasty) when he was living and farming in Chengdu. His farming experience taught him to be thankful
to nature.
The very first word, "good”, shows the poet's joy and love for the spring rain. The rain is good because it "knows" the right time to come. Here the poet uses personification(拟人),as if the rain were smart enough to come in time for the farmer's busy season.
When the rain comes, it “steals in(潜入)”during the night without making any noise. Unlike the summer storms, the spring rain finishes its work without being known.
In the third couplet, the poet describes a peaceful night to us. In the night sky, the clouds look dark and heavy. It's a sign that there will be enough rain during the night. The light from the riverboat makes the dark night a bit livelier.
Lastly, the poet starts to imagine. Tomorrow morning, he thinks, the city of Chengdu will become beautiful when all of the flowers bloom(盛开)after the rain.
