First Day of Summer

It’s the first day of summer,

But feeling like fall,

The chilliest solstice

That I can recall.


Now, I’m not complaining;

I like when it’s cool,

But for June 21st

It is not quite the rule.


As I sit by the river,

My sweatshirt is zipped.

(I had looked at the weather

And came well-equipped.)


It’s an overcast day

With a vigorous breeze.

Mother Nature has no one

She has to appease.


I’m enjoying the chill

For I know very soon

That the weather will feel

More like typical June.
