In Madison Julius Cawein's Rain in the Woods, a young man is walking through a forest on a rainy day. He is filled with a sense of peace and contentment, and he is in awe of the beauty of the woods. He notices the raindrops falling on the leaves and the sound of the birds singing in the trees. He stops to admire a rainbow that appears in the sky, and he is filled with a sense of wonder and joy. As he continues his journey, he notices a small stream and decides to follow it. He is soon lost in the woods, but he finds his way back to the path. He is filled with a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction, and he is grateful for the experience.
