A harsh crack followed the rumble of thunder, a lightning strike. With that, the other musicians began to play, bringing in the tinkling sounds of light rain, the deeper thrum of thicker droplets. The others played the crashing waves, the lapping of water against a nonexistent shore. All around us were the sounds of water, dripping from faucets, gushing from waterfalls. Veronica Roth
About This Quote

The sound of the rain is what makes the heart sing. The sound of rain along with the darkness of night can evoke feelings in us that rarely happen when the sun is shining in the sky. However, in this quote, the author describes that in moments of darkness, when it’s raining, we can almost hear the sound of falls. The crack of thunder and then the lightning strike are the sounds that make the falls become louder, filling our hearts with love for life.
