Weather Forecast

Said the TV’s weatherman, a bright bloke on grey suit, and with weeping eyeglasses, “There’s probability of precipitation. It’s going to rain from coast to coast. Umbrellas, raincoats and rain boots Are cheaper on Ebay. Order from Amazon . . . galoshes and calabashes... It shall rain from Jerusalem to Jericho. And no one shall be spared from the sprinkles — be they Republicans or Democrats. Blonde or raven-haired. So plan your wedding when a spell of sunshine borrowed from Africa falls on one and all, like the bright light on the road to Tarsus. Pray against a jealous tornado which plans to disrupt graduation ceremonies across wayward universities. If you cannot pray, tweet. Heaven also hearkens to tweets. If you doubt it, ask the birds whom the Lord feeds".
