tin roof (Remove filter)
four room house
little four room house
little four room house
had an old tin roof
when it stormed
rain made wonderful sounds
for the boy
lying in bed listening
daddy said it sounded like
a cow peeing
daddy resented
the rain on
the tin roof because roof leaked
daddy and boy would have
to climb ladder to attic to
empty the coffee cans spaced
