A Drizzly Mist
I went for my walk in a drizzly mist,
An umbrella not really required.
If I got to choose weather, I’d get this dismissed
Since it leaves me quite far from inspired.
For my glasses were speckled, which always annoys,
And my jacket, not waterproof, wettish.
This weather brings none of the usual joys,
My appearance more mussed, less coquettish.
I don’t need the sunshine to brighten my walk
And I know I won’t melt if it’s raining,
But a drizzly mist somehow gets me to balk
And, with rhyme or without, start complaining.
