: This Mad, Old, Upset Man by QC Poet

This Mad, upset, old man, sat stretching out his right arm's in hand umbrella!
Puffed on his pipe in the rain on this bench as grandma sat arms crossed deeply thinking,
This grumpy "Thinker" poses fending off the rain dropping on to his grandkids Beloved "Abuela" ;)
She's deep in mind on "Got to Do's" when finally it hits her, "has this old crazy man been lying and drinking"? 

Why insist they go grab a bite in the middle of bad, cloudy, windy, rainy, weather?
Once reminded he moved away from her muttering "Who'd make a crazy plan to go out right now together?
His memory has some gaps held up as high as his pants with those red suspenders,
Though they often disagree she remains his toughest and most staunchest of defenders!

Even when going out in this horrible weather because he suddenly had a whim!
It's another testament to the strong Love bond she's shown all these years for him.
Her brain now questions is she too losing her mind, for coming along on his craziest plan?
The warmth of God's Light and Love they'll feel from above and go home happier holding hands for as long as they can!

Notes;
A Chapter 47 addition portion to my in progress bookt; The Two of Me,
(see by information)

1. Mad; as used in this poem's context is meant to describe a person that does "Weird" things at "Strange" times.
2. "Abuela" refers to a fairly common Spanish word meaning; "Grand Mother" or "Grandma" in Hispanic cultures.
4. At a few Court Ordered Alcoholics Anonymous meetings I attended years ago - the Term "Stinking Thinking" could be referenced as "Not Thinking Clearly" due to the way alcoholism affected drinkers brains.
