Faye Gibson Poet Light Verse

The Sun Has a Headache

Resplendent daylight's illustrious star, 
    so proud to promenade,
decided she is sleeping in 
    and deftly drew the shade,
complaining she can't stand the light . . . 
    she has a migraine.
Our atmosphere's all grizzled grays, 
    disconsolate with rain.

Wet volleys in profusion,
    a deluge when we step out
for the clouds absent "her highness"
    are having quite a pout!
So downpours have your heyday;
    bluster loudly stormy winds -
all day brolly and brogans
    must remain our closest friends.
