Notes About The Poem

*9/20/17  NOW, we can thank Hurricane Jose for being around still, because it is reported that Hurricane Jose may keep Hurricane Maria from hitting the US mainland.

No Way Jose

The news reports to say, “No Way, Jose!”
With hopes to get hurricane Jose, to go away
So, I am now only passing the word along
Let’s not see another one with more go wrong
So, here we go, to start spreading the word
This weather is getting more wild and absurd
                 --- “No way, Jose!” ---
                --- “Now, go away” ---
