What about the drought?!?

What about the drought?

I won't go out

It's raining a drought!

This wench

Is drenched

Brolley's inside-out!

And it's so bizarre

I can't wash my car;

Is there no

Water left

In the reservoir?

A forlorn black sky -

A storm is close by

But politicians state

(In a dried up debate)

That the hosepipes

Stay dry!

My hair is frizzy

And feeling grizzly

As once again

It's got so drizzly

And people do insist

There's a little scotch mist.

It does appear

That the atmosphere

And troposphere

Are wet!

And it's raining 

Cats and Dogs

In the Stratosphere!

I won't go out -

So much wet about!

And the British Monsoon

Is here much too soon

But where is the drought!?
