GERTRUDE GRIZZLER

Gertrude Grizzler had the grumps

With the weather every day.

She was always in the dumps.

If the sun shone she would say,

"Shall I surely melt away?

If the rain came she would moan,

"It will soak me to the bone."

If the wind blew she had fits.

"I shall just be blown to bits."

If it went still the she would wheeze,

"If only there were a little breeze."

"For winter," she said, "would make you freeze."

"For spring," she said,"would make you sneeze."

"For summer," she said, "was far too hot;

And autumn- saddest of the lot."

If it were clear, then she'd complain,

"The blue sky is so dull and plain."

If clouds came over she would cry,

"How grim and grey they make the sky."

Gertrude Grizzler had the grumps

And was always in the dumps.
