In One Short Day

In one short day, the weather changed

From dark to bright and rearranged

Our attitudes and clothes we wear

To fit the hours, foul or fair.

 

It started out with quite a storm

But temps unusually warm,

As rain ran riot ‘cross the road

And lawns turned into puddle mode.

 

The winds whipped wildly; from each tree

The squirrels scampered crazily.

Umbrellas, often such a perk,

On days like this, don’t really work.

 

As hours passed by, with me inside,

The rain decided to subside

And then the wind slowed down, as well,

For good, as far as I could tell.

 

The sun peeked out, for just a while.

I got my walk in, with a smile,

But heading back, dark clouds appeared,

This fickle weather really weird.

 

And now tonight, some thunder struck

And raindrops we will have to duck.

Tomorrow, I can just surmise,

Will bring another new surprise.
