Rain
RAIN
it’s raining non stop
humidity out-of-sight
those maddening raindrops!
not a real downpour
but just this steady drizzle
only good for the crops
sticky is the word
such that when i get up
the chair comes with me
it’s a frog’s delight…
noah’s sensing the great flood…
the whole world at sea..
owl and pussy cat
in their slimy pea green boat
drifting endlessly!
these depressing thoughts –
the sun will never come out –
have me feeling yuck!
then i watch the news
“twister levels many blocks”
and i’m thunderstruck!
