AN AWFUL IMPossIBILIrY.
The soaking rain Is pouring down
How II would MI your cup
With bitterness II some day it
should start to POURING up!
Umbrellas then would he no use.
And men in rubber boots
Would have to go. while all the girls
Would put on bathing suits.
You'd have fountain on your lawn
Beside each bla 10 OF gtaSs
To keep your cellar warm and dry
You'd need u door Of glass,
If you were camping in a tent,
You'd have to sleep on top,
And all night you'u be praying that
The cursed rain IN gilt stop,
In fact great Inconvenience
Too numerous to state.
Would follow II the falling rain
Should cease to grovltate,
So let us hope here'll be no change.
At least in our town,
And that Instead OF pouring up,
The rain will still pour down.
