Rainy Day Recluse
Another rainy day they say,
will follow on tomorrow.
The fact I cannot bail the hay
leaves me full of sorrow.
It's so long since the sun shone.
I feel like a recluse.
Unless it changes by morn,
my hay will be kaput.
For now I sit in my comfy chair.
The fire is brightly lit.
My old LPs are on the player.
From my poteen I take a sip.
The music of days gone by.
I hum along to the tunes.
Every now and then I sigh,
to think of my hay in ruins.
