Ballad of the Rain Delay

What can I say about today?
One thing only - rain delay
Nole must be saying 'yay!'
Because he gets an extra day.

But Rafa likes his resting too
So, just between me and you
I do not think that he will do
Anything different - he'll win (big, too).

But we must wait - alack, alay -
This means I don't have much to say
Which is why today is Rhyming Day...
(...and now I'm going to go away.)
