Christmas in July

Just days before this weekends…

Christmas in July. And we are getting the gift of rain.

rain

Twas just days before Christmas, and all through the house...
not a creature was stirring, not even a stuffed mouse.
When all of a sudden, what should I hear...
a tap, tapping on my roof, it sounded so near...
then some rumble, rumblings afar in the sky...
I arose in a flash... I was wondering why...
I ran outside to see what was the matter...
and to my amazement, find what caused such a clatter...
With a drop on my head, and several all around...
I watched in amazement, as more rain hit the ground...
we're finally getting rain, on this dry parched land...
and I thought to myself... now isn't this grand...
So ends my story as a new day begins...
now everyone will wake... with a great big grin...
we can't work in the rain, oh, dear, what a shame...
the word will go out, as we clearly proclaim...
we're off for the day... now what shall I do...
I'm just gonna nap and relax... how about you.
