A ditty about garden tedium that can be sung to the tune of "This Land is Your Land."
A rainy summer can be a bummer,
unless you dance to a different drummer.
If you like it steamy and you don't mind sweating,
stormy summer days are made for you.

When the garden's blooming, but it needs some grooming.
And several flowers could use some pruning.
If you hate facing those irksome duties,
stormy summer days are made for you.

When the sun is shining and plants are thriving,
or even when some are just surviving,
a few excuses are always handy,
and stormy summer days are made for you.
