GLEEFUL ANTICIPATION
(to the tune of: ON THE TOP OF OLD SMOKEY)
–
Out in the Berkshires*
Weather radar shows…
A rip-snorting rain storm
With thunderous throes!
–
It;s sweeping right for us,
Will be here by morn
With this modern radar
We keep well-informed!
–
‘Though a soaking rain’s better,
We’ll take what we get…
Now I hear in forty minutes
We’ll all be wet!!!!
