When I left Vermont It Was Raining

What do chickens do when it rains…

stay in the coop?

What do sheep do when it rains…

stay in the shed?

I have to fly to Mexico…

sleep in a warm bed.

Storms in New Jersey,

where I’m flying through….

the whole East coast is storming,

flights delayed…what to do?

Ah, another storm in my life,

blowing me away…way away.

I’ll take my chances

just like in the past.

Whatever storm may come

I know it never lasts.

I’ll get up and fly away

out of the blue, into the grey.
