Weather Forecast

For my pocket, mostly money;
  For my jokes, partly punny.

Not a cloud in the corporation,
  Unlike my home's downwind location.

All clear for illicit affairs in the forecast,
  While the outlook for new babies is overcast.

Yet punny is usually funny and sweet,
  Whereas money may eventually deplete.

And one's home a welcome respite and retreat,
  From endless corporate meetings and heat.

And of course, babies do marriages complete,
  While illicit affairs are naturally indiscreet. 

    So here's to a perfect sky of blue
    In 2018 for your family and you!

Babies and illicit affairs are an interesting mix for a weather forecast...

We-e-e-e-ll, maybe my crystal ball needs a spring cleaning! At any rate, thank you for reading and for the spot-on observation, my friend. Best wishes, Gershon
