Living the Aging Life

There are Blessings enough to go around.

There are Blessings enough to share.

There are Blessings enough to lift the hearts

of Everyone, Everywhere.

It hasn’t rained for weeks and weeks –

more weeks than I remember.

I hope we get some Rain Relief

before it hits September!

Each day I rise and check the news.

Each day I check the weather.

Each day I’m eager and I hope

that things are getting better.

Each day the news is filled with woe,

corruption and with sorrow.

Each day I still hold onto hope

for Happier Tomorrow.

The weather’s brought a cooling change

from all that heat and sizzle.

We woke to welcome overcast

with just a touch of drizzle.

The slight precipitation

doesn’t measure up as “rain”

but it feels a whole lot better

to see gloomy skies again.

The days are parching.

Drier.  Hotter.

I hope those Rascally Rabbits find water.

We’ve raped the planet.

But the planet will win.

The planet will rid itself of men.
