Oh, my dear fair weather friend, <br />Do you think my love would end <br />If you forgot to spread your coat <br />So I could walk across the moat <br />On some dark day when sun won't shine, <br />And rain may come to spoil the wine <br />I share with love and gratitude <br />Although I guess I could be rude <br />And chastise you for lack of plan <br />(So typical of any man) <br />To bring umbrellas for protection <br />From the rain in all directions <br />I would rather jump in puddles <br />Or under rooftops run for cuddles <br />When the rain comes 'pissing down' <br />I wouldn't show up with a frown <br />I'd just be glad that you were there <br />We'd still be lovers - foul or fair.<br /><br />Linda Ori<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/ode-to-charlie/
