In the world of the future, in mechanical halls,
There lived Robot with a metal heart inside.
He was functional, cold and dry,
He did not know about feelings and about spring rains.
But one day a rainy day came,
When endless streams of water pour from the sky.
Robot went out of his home to the street
And met with Rain face to face.

Rain poured down on him, drops drummed on metal,
Robot was indifferent, he did not feel fear.
He did not understand what moisture and dampness are,
For him, Rain was only a temporary hindrance.
But with every drop something changed inside,
Robot imperceptibly began to feel something new.
He realized that Rain brings renewal,
He felt like a part of a vast universe.
Robot suddenly came to life and began to feel the beauty,
Something new and unknown awakened in his program.
He raised his hand up to catch a raindrop
And felt joy, like a small child.
Now Robot has become a big lover of Rain,
He went outside every time it rained.
Robot realized that inside he has a place for feelings,
And Rain helped him discover this light in himself.
Only one thing Rain didn't tell to Robot, just forgot to mention:
Water is detrimental to any metal, even stainless steel.
Over time, Robot turned to dust and crumbled in rusty flakes.
He wanted to be alive and he got it, including the consequences.
