The Book

I went for a walk I looked forward To a book lying Ready to read Read; sitting on the porch The road ahead Clear as day The sky opened up The rain poured down Poured down on me The sun lighted up the rain The bus driver floored it As he passed me by Wet; soaking wet The rain stopped; suddently I went by the stadium The artificial turf shone with life The sun hid behind a dark cloud Now; I’m reading a book Wet behind the ears Sitting on the sofa
