The wind bullied me on my way home today.
It bumped and shoved the car
and then jerked the steering wheel.
I kept my hands at ten and two
to keep me in my lane.
Didn’t make a difference which way I turned,
wind  was everywhere I went.
Took old 40, going fifty-five,
had the window down a bit
it was so warm outside.
Must mean the wind’s out of the south.
There’ll be a cold front on its heels
and a tornado somewhere in between.
Just you wait and see.
They say March comes in like a lion
and goes out like a lamb…
Be that as it may,
this is Kansas and that bullying wind
is going to bully its way through
whenever it wants, all year long.

Heh.Heh it comes from the south you say . . . Be that as it may, you can just keep that old bullying wind, we have hurricanes, that is plenty enough wind for me.

I'd tell you to click your pretty red shoes together Miss Lori...but you may need them for the pedals.

Hang on tight!

Hey Jerry, long time no see!  Glad to see you are still kicking...er...a...typing. You flatter me telling me to keep the wind, as if I had such power. ~L

Me a bully? I take offense. The wind thing, I can confess to breaking some and being long winded...

I did't come back here to bully anyone . . . What I said, in my thoughts, was in fun. But I will apologize anyway.
