Nothing But Blue Skies

I saw a man today who was walking with a cane, His knee would give him trouble whenever it was going to rain. On his knee’s prognostication you could place a bet, If you saw him limping by you know that you’d get wet. But if you saw him walking by with a spring in his step, There were only two reasons that could account for his pep. It could be that the sun is high and will continue shinning bright, Or it could be that he got lucky when he went to bed last night. So if you wanted to know if it was the sun or an amorous interlude, You’d have to meet up with his wife and check her attitude.

What a clever little write you have written Tony!! I still think that it's the weather that makes the difference! And at least my nerve damaged arm is filled with pain when it's going to rain...there's no way around it! Yeah it sucks, but that's just the way it is!! Awesome Work!!
