The Heavens did Open

Nature in initial intent,
But turned into humor as more time was spent...

The Heavens Did Open…


 


Like a sluice gate in a dam,


It hit us with the force of a charging ram,


The sound it did make much like that of wham,


The rain it did come down, pretty funny if it went up, what a sham…


 


No wind it does seem, just the hard pounding rain, why do some call it heavy?


How can rain be heavy, even if it were to be released from a levy,


Cleaning away again the world of man, seems he needs a lot this season,


And here I thought I was the only one that did need a shower, but for no reason…


 


Rufuz needs a walk, but do I want to go out and get soaked,


Maybe just open the door and let him out, no not a joke,


He just stands there and looks at me, like “no way dad, you go first!”


The damn pain in the ass, he wants out, but I have to go too,


Its not like I have to hold it for him or wipe his butt,


He is a dog, he can do for himself, probably just wants me to see,


How big his turd is, what a big pain in the butt he is sometimes to me…

How about Rufuz thinking something like.....misery loves company!!!! Besides Ed, you aren't sugar, you won't melt as my grandmother used to say. Wonder now if that meant I wasn't too sweet either?? LOL

Keep safe and warm and dry my friend. Love to you and Rufuz.
