Joseph May Poet Rhyme

Rainy Day Blues

Thunder greets me this Monday morning
 As a storm was aborning
 From this gloom I take my cues
 Leaving me with rainy day blues

  A feeling of deja vu  I can't ignore
 I've seen this gloomy day before
 Melancholy thoughts are what I choose
 Leaving me with Monday morning blues

 My thoughts float in the clouds above
 Of one night stands misconstrued as love
 Precipitation from the sky now spews
 Leaving me with the rainy day blues
