Did It Rain?

Goldfinch60



Oh no, not again!

The weather report

Said it would be raining,

Raining all afternoon.

Being the idiot I am

I went anyway,

Went out to the lawn

To hit croquet balls

All over the place.

And there we were,

Four of us

Strolling around the lawn,

Playing our favourite game

In the wonderful sunlight.

A beautiful bright afternoon,

Not a speck of rain fell

On our glorious time,

Surrounded by the beauty,

The vibrant beauty of Nature.

      Thank you Orchi, one birthday a year is more than enough otherwise I would be over 120,000,000 years old!

        No idiocy there, Andy - you took a calculated gamble given the uncertain record attending weather reports and won (with respect to the weather anyway.....!)

        PS: Happy Birthday to you!

          Thank you Dave, we play in the rain anyway, I look upon croquet as 'my drug of choice'. LOL

            I'd keep that quiet, if I were you - it is bound to get banned if you give it too higher profile.

            Sounds like a lot of fun had by all on a beautiful day. Thanks for sharing.

              It certainly was TEP, we had a great day.
