the leaf no longer drips
out side my window
the sky has for the moment
stopped it's weeping,
maybe the moon got it some
hokey pokey ice cream,
it is cold enough, the puddle pools
of water have little lace doily edges
and the hibiscus bushes are frosted
the weatherman states we are having
an unseasonable cold snap....
this is the first time the tuxedo rex
has seen frost...he is beyond freaked
and has gone into the linen ccupboard
to seek solace and warm, we find him
curled up under the guest towels
the paths are icy, as well my bottom knows
this is not a drill, we don't normally get this
cold here and frankly we are under prepared
we have towels covering every hangable surface
the dryer running constantly, the fire is eating wood
at an alarming rate...and the wifi has become unstable
and now the leaf is dripping again...
do we remember what the sun does...Do we???
