Curtis Moorman Poet Rhyme

Rainy Day Blues

RAINY DAY BLUES


Today is a rainy day
It makes me sad and blue
If the sun would drive the clouds away
I'd look for something to do

But wait, I know a neighbor
Who's crippled and cannot walk
It really involves no labor
For me to visit and sit and talk

Then, of course, there's Mrs. Jones
Over on Maple Street
With arthritis in her bones
And gout swelling her feet

And how about Mr. McCord
In the local nursing home
Whose wife went to be with the Lord
And left him all alone

If I visit each of them today
To catch up on all the news
I'll be grateful that I found a way
To end my rainy day blues
