Poems for a Rainy Day
While I was turning horses out, cleaning sheds and generally getting soaked today, I came up with some Haikus.
Rains have started, very wet
Horses standing in muddy paddocks, no good.
Must buy more gravel pronto.
Drainage systems overloaded with water
Darn, we thought we had it covered
Must dig many more ditches
Gutters are very merrily overflowing
Water gushing everywhere, into stalls, into arena
Ack! Need to repair quickly
And lastly:
Rain, rain, go away
Summer wasn't here to stay
Me and Galen want to play
Rain, rain, go away.
Think I'll go order some gravel.
One of our 'works in progress'.

There's no such thing as
Too much gravel on a farm
I thought you knew that?
I keep hoping one of the kids will marry into a gravel family. Is that wrong?
Either marry into gravel...or maybe become a diesel mechanic?
I think that's quite reasonable.
