It's Raining Poem by Anisha Nyambe

It's Raining



it's raining, it's raining
the old man is snoring
he bumped his head so he never woke up
so he never woke up in the morning

it's raining, it's raining
the blind girl is showering
she fell in the tub so she never got up
so she never sot up in the morning

it's raining, it's raining
the small boys are playing
they broke their legs so they never went to school
so they never went to school in the morning

it's raining, it's raining
the poetess is typing
she sprained her wrist so she never wrote again
so she never wrote again in the morning.

the first stanza is adapted from a nursery rhyme. the rest is my own work. it's currently raining here in Zambia so I thought, why not?
