Midnight Odyssey
Started my midnight odyssey
Pondering some frivolity
Fixated at the storm's sound
Nature's theater in the round
Lightning illuminates the room
Chased by a vociferous sonic boom
Hope it's not a terrible tornado
Rather see a grand rainbow
News said this was to be mediocre
But it has turned into a real soaker
Little woman hasn't moved at all
She'll sleep through the squall
Rain is pelting the window
Adjust this new pillow
Just want to go to sleep
Will the Angel of Death reap?
Tomorrow will be here too soon
Hope we won't need a pontoon
Think I'm sleepy at long last
Lousy weather forecast
