Rare lluvia día,
I made a taza of té,
With leche and jengibre.
I sat on the cama
With a peaceful libro,
Watched the wet jardín.
Gorrión on the pared,
Oscuras nubes
Streaking the cielo.
What an agradable way
To acknowledge the clima.
Translation:
A rare rainy day, I made a cup of tea with milk and ginger.
I sat on the bed with a peaceful book, watching the wet garden.
A sparrow on the wall, dark clouds streaking the sky.
What a pleasant way to embrace the weather.

Two Grumpy Old Men Solve the Problem
Marty and Steve were two grumpy old men who lived together. They had known each other for years. Marty had been a bachelor all his life. Steve said it was because no one could stand to ever live with. Marty’s standard reply was “Well, you are, so what sort of a moron does that make you!”
