A Rainy Morn With Rusty
By George Thurlow
©️4/8/22
Trills and twitters, pitter-patter
Musically announce the morn,
April shower splashes
Forbidding a vibrant dawn.
Tapping, pinging, drumming
The precipitation pours,
Rusty beats a haste retreat
Speedily from the door.
With leash in hand I persuade him
Through the puddles and the damp,
“Do your morning business
Come on you’re a champ.”
With the promise of a doggy ride
He’s suddenly not deterred,
Soon jumping in my pick-up
Shaking off his fur.
Ezekiel 34:26
“And I will make them and the places round about my hill a blessing; and I will cause the shower to come down in his season; there shall be showers of blessing.”
