Faking Rhymes No.1

 Swimming With Sharks Lou GIF 

I set off with a cheerful grin,
My journey home was set to begin.
But lo! The skies began to grumble,
And English clouds began to mumble.

 

The motorway turned into a stream,
Wipers flapping like a dream.
Cars ahead with brake lights glowing,
In a queue that’s barely flowing.

 

“Just an hour,” I told my mate,
But the rain had other plans for fate.
Junction signs looked like a blur,
And puddles played a splashing spur.

 

Lorries lurking, spraying spray,
My hair now frizzled, gone astray.
Radio drowned by thunder’s roar,
My mind started to gently snore.

 

squirrel dashed—it’s bold, it’s keen,
Across the lane, a tiny scene.
I swerved, I braked, with trembling hands,
While traffic churned in soggy lands.

 

“Oh motorway gods, please hear my plea,
Let me home safe, with a cuppa tea!”
The rain kept falling, relentless, true,
As miles stretched on in dreary hue.

 

At last, I reached my humble place,
Rain-soaked, wind-blown, bedraggled face.
But now, with towel and dry embrace,
I laugh at this wet motorway race.
