Rain and 91% Humidity
People are feeling hot and sick?
I was at a memorial yesterday and one person was in bed sick
he didn't like the heat and humidity. But that couldn't be his stick
he was from Louisianna. It is hot and humid there right?
He was in bed the whole time I was there, no sight
of him, except for a quick ask for a fan
My sister-in-law was fighting the same sickness
what can it be, others were talking allergies. There was a quickness
to get through my time there as I don't need to get sick
This morning I awoke to rain. Maybe just in the nick
of time. Does rain wash away the humidity? No
not a bit. It only feels better because it is cooler, so
what does drop the humidity? The right wind?
Me, I like the rain, as we still need more of that kind
to help fires and to keep the water flow alive.
Our Mississippi is flowing, better today
than it has been, and rain is so important I say
Let's go out and enjoy this day
And if you get a chance pray
for water today!
