So beautiful, and meaningful, and moving! The poem is by Sara Teasdale (1884-1933): "There will come soft rains and the smell of the ground, And swallows circling with their shimmering sound; And frogs in the pools singing at night, And wild plum trees in tremulous white, And not one will know of the war, not one will care at last when it is done. Not one would mind, neither bird nor tree If mankind perished utterly; And Spring herself, when she woke at dawn, Would scarcely know that we were gone."
@@allenmonroeiii Wow, this is like a reference in a reference in a reference. Let's see: In Fallout 3, the McClellan House is a discoverable location which is a based off of the Ray Bradbury short story There Will Come Soft Rains. In that short story, a nuclear war has killed all of the human inhabitants (the McClellan family) but all of the robots and mechanisms of the house operate as though the people were still there. One of the robots reads a bed-time poem for the children who are no longer there, and reads Sara Teasdale's There Will Come Soft Rains. A Mr. Handy robot in the Fallout 3 location will read the same poem to war-devastated children's room when prompted to.
It's the name of a Bradbury story which is based on the name of the poem that is read to the empty house before being destroyed. The original poem is by Sara Tesdale
I can die happy now. Some of the most gorgeous oboe playing. This recording could be on a movie soundtrack.
Something beautiful in our troubled world, thank you!
I love that oboist's tone. Very beautiful!

I came looking for this poem, and found out that Memley wrote it. I took a class from him in high school before he was well known, so this is so wild.
Perfection
Truly beautiful
Isn't this the name of a Bradbury story? This is beautiful and totally fits the atmosphere of the short story

Вполне апокалиптично, тепло и с чётким ощущением безысходности.)
