Poem
It was raining and all were feeling blue. Writer’s block wasn’t helping… What was I to do? Suddenly… in popped the Possum of Possibilities! Then a most peculiar thing, my mind had lots of ideas. Boy it did sing! How did he do it? Do I really care? I wanted the fun, he makes everywhere. He quickly grabbed our sleepy Dragon, who’d been spread out upon the couch. And they soared above the rain clouds, grabbing rays of sunshine from above. Well, do tell! Naturally, it was still raining, so he had hid them in his pouch. Then he found Dragon’s selfie stick, when he got back, into our little house. He then attached a ray of sunshine, where the camera would normally, be put. Then, to protect it from the rain, to keep the little ray of sunshine, dry all day. He put it under an umbrella, and for all in the house, did the exact same thing. Now, we’ll all have fun, playing in the rain, as our little rays… light the way. No more, Dragon flying around, trying to… fan those dark, rain clouds away. He’s using that ray of sunshine, to get his summer tan, while adding his own… Fire glow detailing to his scales. Looks rather smart. Don’t you think? Do tell! Dragon is now splashing in the water puddles, and singing ‘Twist and Shout’! His penguins are following, along behind, and dancing to 'Singing in The Rain'. Indeed, we can’t seem to get the umbrellas and selfie sticks… from their… little penguin flipper, hand thingies. Oh well! If you can't beat them, join them! As ALL the town has done! Dragon’s the new Pied Piper of puddle jumping… Newly found… Goes to show that. You can’t keep a good town down! Indeed! We’ll be doing ‘Singing in the Rain’soon, instead of ‘Shakespeare in the Park’. Grandpa Troll has now mastered the art of jumping into one water puddle… And coming out another… later on… somewhere along… down the road! His new lessons on how to do this… Have now begun… So TAKE THAT! Mister Rain Cloud! Remember! You were the one to enter… Mayhem Falls! Where even you can brighten the day, and where, even Mayhem can be fun… Now, if only, I could get you to behave, and leave that Little ray of sunshine… On MY selfie stick, ALONE! …What? He’s flirting? With me? Do tell!!! Well, if he learns to smile a bit… He’ll be welcome to hang around! After all… The Possum of Possibilities says he has more fun to bring! If you come along… Written 7-22-2015
