When It Rains, It Pours

When it rains, it pours”

Often turns out true 

For one thing gone wrong

Sometimes starts a slew.


So an E.R. trip,

Which would be enough,

Then a tire near flat

Leads to other stuff.


Like no transport home

From a birthday meet

Since the E.R. car

Had the booster seat.


Frantic texts and calls

‘Til things got resolved 

But the story then

Gets much more involved.


‘Cross the ocean, flights

Somehow get delayed.

Then a phone gets lost,

Leaving all dismayed.


But the downpour stops

And the sun comes out.

All the ups and downs

Are what life’s about.
