Poem Artwork


 


Passing storms,


Always here the norms,


Weather getting cooler,


As is again here true form,


Lightening here comes in swarms…


 


Five inches in a day, no way,


Oh yes, but used to it we are,


Raincoat to stay dry, can’t see tonight a star,


Gusts of wind do make the motorhome sway…


 


They pass by so quick,


Rufuz got his walk just in the nick,


Sidewalk really quite slick,


No games tonight in the rain,


Even did Rufuz refuse my throwing the stick…J

I do find storm to be envigorating but often, that is from the inside of the window. Thank you, Ed. Love and peace,

Regis

I can surely relate to this one, Ed, here in Wisconsin.
And yes...it IS snowing right now...just flakes here and
there...but the wind is strong and cold.
As for your comment about my being too young for arthritis...I
had pangs of it already at age 33...

Thanks for stopping by my pages, and for the nice encouragement.

Rufuz got sense. As a Scot used to wet weather, I am not used to the warm weather in the south of England. I am simply not used to having to get out of my dry clothes everyday when I return to the house.

Hi Eddie!

They say that lightning never strikes twice in the same place, but I'm not so sure about that now. I watched your video and it struck 37 times in the exact same place while I was watching it. Dog gone! Or at least I hope he was gone.

While we are on the subject of lightning, have you ever noticed that it never lightnings right after you fart? It's true. Every single time that I have ever farted, it didn't lightning. I made the only thunder on those occasions. I think they need to do a study on this.

Thanks buddy,

Scott
