The Rain In Spain comic poem 431 by Angela Lansbury

The rain in Spain has hit us again

It flows like a river into the blocked drains

Up on puddled paths, down misty mountain

Umbrellas like paper, like a broken fountain


Follow a mad hiker

A bedraggled biker

Where tourists are caught

By the promise of sport


Where the only culture

Is a wheeling vulture

A bleeding nose

No nails on big toes


There's always one

Who stilll thinks hiking's fun

Just follow the guide

To a hot drink inside.


I found a table where we three can sit

A free museum, and a free toilet

The best holiday, it seems to me

Is cold coffee, hor tea and good company.
