On This Kind of Day

The weatherman says it will be 85

But it now feels like 72.

So what should I wear? Out the window I glance,

Thinking people will give me a clue.

 

Yet from what I can see, it’s a very mixed bag –

There are t-shirts and sandals and shorts,

Though I also see long-sleeves and jackets and jeans,

Which all go with both weather reports.

 

Yes, on this kind of day, there’s a wide-ranging arc –

Any item of clothing will do

And since I’m always cold, I’ll wear layers to peel,

So I’ll comfortably muddle on through.
