Watching Groucho

The heat is overwhelming here,

So we’ve been trapped inside,

Except for walking to the car,

Where cool air does preside.


With time to kill, my husband found

Old movies on TV,

Some Groucho films without his sibs,

Not known to him or me.


We still found him hilarious,

A genius at his craft.

I’d be suspicious of a soul

Who watched and never laughed.


The film that followed had the other

Brothers, which just means 

More chances to crack up

In many other crazy scenes.


Though people go to Florida 

To loll around a beach,

I’m glad, when weather’s Venus-like,

These films are in our reach.
