Dear Weather Depot
I’m writing to say…
Perhaps you’ve not noticed,
It’s the middle of May?
I’m not one for complaining,
But I’m wondering why
All this rain keeps on raining,
And grey clouds fill the sky?
I’m still wearing a hat,
And my gloves and my coat,
This is not satisfactory,
(Hence my slightly brusque note!)
Did Spring lose its zing?
Has it really begun?
Is it lost in the post?
Has its spring-thing not sprung?
And I do beg your pardon,
But I’d quite like to sit
On the bench in my garden,
(I’ve looked forward to it).
So please could you check,
In your weather-book thingy,
And please make this spring
Just a little more ‘springy!’
