Sun-Shower Poem by Randy McClave

Such a beautiful day it is today
No one is in, every one is out to play,
The sun is out and it is lovely and bright
It brings forth warmth and also delight.
My wife is happy, so shines the sun
A beautiful day for us has just begun,
In love and happiness, beauty and warmth are the signs
So, of course the sun it shines.
I thank God for this beautiful day that he has given
As many has said, life is truly worth livin',
I feel that God is happy so he gave us this sunrise
As he has also given me my wife, my greatest prize.
My wife is happy so she prepares our lunch
She firsts brings out snacks for us to munch,
Nothing is better than having a happy mate
Sunshine indeed is a reward for our joyous fate.
Then unexpectedly comes a sun-shower
I think to myself by whose power,
God had given us this beautiful day to enjoy
Then I think in the confusion of the rain and sun what is the ploy.
We all ran quickly back into my house
First ones in was my brother and his spouse,
Family peace is always ended with abusiveness and strife
Today they say, the Devil is beating his wife.
