Casualty And Reality # 409

There was a time when I thought that the

rain would never fall out of the sky-

May not happen again, but, I’m gonna

enjoy today, that was not dry.

Modern Mother Goose-On The Loose # 650

It wasn’t supposed to rain, but then it did-

And, the sight of it was not hid.

.

The raindrops began to fall-

The wetness from the clouds did not stall.

.

And, to the town’s surprise-

The water began to rise.

.

It had been dry for so long-

That when the drops began,

the celebration came on strong.

.

But, some of those drivers had

forgotten-

That the streets flooded, can be

unsafe now and then.

.

To drive through-

Is not always the thing to do.

.

Some got stuck and had to be

towed-

As the rain continued, and the

flooding flowed.

.

It wasn’t supposed to rain, but then it did-

And, the sight of it was not hid.

A rainy day means staying inside-

To read a book, to stay completely dried.

Modern Mother Goose-On The Loose (Red Beans And Rice On Mondays)

It was a Monday, and it was so nice-

That I decided to put on some red beans, to have with some rice.

.

This was always done back in the day-

For Mondays were preserved for washday.

.

As the beans simmered, the clothes were washed and rinsed by hand-

There were clotheslines all across the Louisiana land.

.

To use after scrubbing and rinsing those dirty clothes-

To be hung out, and oh, they smelled so good to the nose.

.

Of course, this was just a part, of the washing chore-

For the ironing had to be done, and then the clothes put away in store.

.

But when all was over and done, it felt nice-

To know that all one had to do was boil some rice.

.

Red beans and rice after a long hard worked Monday-

Yeah, this was back, in the day, always done this way.

.

It was a Monday, and it was so nice-

That I decided to put on some red beans, to have with some rice.
