The sky was black this morning As we ventured out as the day was dawning Thick frost underfoot but that was expected We did not know what was a pending Out of the black came ascending Enormous rain drops falling from the sky Like the heavens had been opened And Mother Nature was having a cry Soaked to the bone we went home Dried off with a towel And back to bed under the quilt I had Walked the dog so I have no guilt We snuggled up nice and warm A happy dog ( my baby) and a happy mom! Safe and warm and now back home!
