RAIN-SOAKING

RAIN-SOAKING

It rained and rained all night

I saw it in a street light…

Drops on the ground–

That pitter-patter sound

But the raincoat never fit right!

Last night took off with no jacket,

Rain on the roof made a racket….

‘Twas like the rain said

“Let’s go ahead,”

Saw my white shirt and attacked it.

The British insist an umbrella

Compliment the style of a fella…

Practicality

In Great Britain agrees

Anyone well-prepared is stellar!

Today we’re scheduled for more,

Might even get a downpour….

Properly cloaked

I won’t be soaked

But ready and dry to my core!
