Doubting Thomas Visits the Weatherman Stand

Thomas was a doubter Not a pouter Day was bright Sunny no clouds in sight God’s gift warm and temperatures just right But there was Danny the weatherman Predicting things behind a five and dime stand “There is something big headed our way Filled with high winds I must say Lightning and thunder Will be the wonder” Thomas didn’t believe the word And headed out to see the swirl “Before you leave I would like you to believe In what I see A problem is brewing Preparation is what you should be doing” Thomas shrugged his shoulders Feeling these warnings are colder Decided to put them in his thoughtful folder “Could you please spare a nickel and dime? Payment to hear the information from my mind,” Danny asked After performing the forecasting task Being a man Thomas decided to confront To see what the forces of nature want Ocean waves were making surf rougher A message to Thomas ‘you better get tougher’ Skies started out blue Grey entered the picture too Night arrived time to hit the sack Peacefully waited for the meteorological attack Tune in tomorrow And the results to this rainy day horror
