A RAINY PICNIC DAY by BURGES JOHNSON

First Line: IT'S RAINING-RAINING HARD AS CATS AND DOGS
Last Line: COULD BE PUT OFF IN SUCH A LOT OF WAYS.
Subject(s): CHILDREN; PICNICS; RAIN; CHILDHOOD; BARBECUES;
It's raining—raining hard as cats and dogs,
It always did when days we planned for came.
I wish that we were ducks or little frogs,
Then we could have our picnic just the same.
It seems zif little children's pleasure days
Could be put off in such a lot of ways.
