The Fall Poem

I heard about a storm coming More rain is what we are all wanting California needs rain Like a dirty shirt needs a stain We are doing better Thanks to all the prayers It shows that many people believe And care I have just been groovin’ this afternoon Listening to my favorite tunes As I was looking out my window I heard someone shout “Bingo!” A couple of friends Are in the den And I think it’s time for them to go But I would never put them out I enjoy the noise of laughter and shouts I’ll just close the door as I ponder about Going to the store I could buy a few more Christmas lights But shucks, how bright is bright? I’ll take that thought off the list And drink a shot of Canadian Mist
