Downpour Poem by bob barci

We are in
when we should be out.
The downpour keeps us here.
So, some inside things
should keep us busy.
The plants need watering
I need to write,
You wish to try an experiment.
Perhaps a game of Scrabble.
Possibly a quick run to the store.
The downpour keeps us here.
A perfect excuse for doing inside chores.
Maybe a few calls to check on friends.
Downpours always make me feel lazy.
I wouldn't mind sleeping all day.
What's on the TV today?
The sun took the day off and stayed inside.
That's a good idea, so I will too.
