5am skies
Paint a periwinkle view
A slick step underlies
This cold morning dew
It should come as no surprise
The birds echoing coo
And I can only surmise
That springs fighting through
But the forecast lies
And warm glimpses are few
As winter bored eyes
Beg the sun to come to
This town softly sighs
Reluctant flowers grew
And sunlight it pries
At the clouds we so rue
Yearn for giving up ties
To bundling till we brew
Instead saying our hi's
To the shorts we outgrew
Then we'll hear children's cries
As the school year is through
How summer yearly buys
Precious freedom to renew
As a sunbather fries
To reach a darker hue
And teenage boys rise
Forget shirts when they do
When the cold rain dries
Although not quite on cue
This change is a prize
You could take part, too
