Atmospheric Pressure

Down by the sea amid the frolic and glee If the sky's blue, you're feeling the breeze Adore, savor, relish; hear the wind's sigh Because the atmospheric pressure's high. On your farm, and all around the town Calm air, no storms, no need to frown Dance, bounce, spin, twiddle, twirl in joy Because the atmospheric pressure's high. Up in the clouds, near mountain tops Heart's feeling fog as oxygen drops Clouds will glow, storms will blow Because the atmospheric pressure's low. In high altitudes where the airplanes fly Lower temperatures will roam the sky In airplane's cabin the air's full of woe Because the atmospheric pressure's low. High or low pressure, stormy or a blue sky Rest easy knowing laws of nature apply Sun will shine after the rains are gone A weary night will bring a cheery dawn.
