May’s departure reminds us
That winter’s wool jacket
Has been replaced
With spring’s fabric sandals
The morning frost
That caked our windshields
Is now but a glossy dew
That lays upon the grass
The late December chill
That weathered our flesh
And consumed our warmth
No longer can feast
June’s prelude will refresh us
The endless sunshine and subtle breeze
Will nourish us in preparation
For winter’s arrival once again
