Weather Forecast In a Land of Smile

WEATHER FORECAST IN A LAND OF SMILE

Weather forecast for today,
     Country of Thailand, its Stormy,
          Please be careful on your way,
               Cancel your appointments and stay.

Watch the latest news on television,
     Be prepared, that’s everybody’s mission,
          It might be flooded everywhere,
               To those who are travelling.. take care.

Since I have to work on that day,
     I start my morning habit and pray,
          “Please guide me on my way”,
               “I have to do it for the sake of my family”.

As I travel along,
     To school where I belong,
          The sun pop up in the sky,
               And on my face you can see a smile,

Stormy weather turns to sunny,
     Who’s to blame to that news anyway?
          Nobody because it’s forces of nature,
               In a flash it can change for sure.
