Official

It’s official – summer’s here,
So turn on the A/C.
Get ready for the sweat to roll
From high humidity.

Some people like the lighter clothes –
The tank tops and the shorts.
They also love the longer days
And all those outdoor sports.

I guess some summer comforts
Are attractive, I agree:
But mugginess and perspiration
Don’t appeal to me.

I dread the summer weather
But don’t need a crystal ball
To tell me that in three months’ time,
I’ll gladly welcome fall!

  1. summer's there where you are,
    but it's here too.
    no humidity for us,
    and skies of shocking blue.
    recent snow on the high peaks,
    wildflowers abound,
    the lake is full,
    the nights are cool,
    nobody needs AC.
    enjoy your summer if you can,
    i wish that you were here,
    to experience another clime,
    and a cool margarita
    with organic lime.

  2. the margarita sounds divine,
    enticing more than beer or wine;
    but what makes me want to run and pack a bit
    is your humidity - or rather, lack of it!
