LATE SUMMER WEATHER

Weather-wise

It is a great, great day

Today you have to look for it

But it is there for the taking

It has been a peculiar year

Four seasons for sure

And each season had

Four seasons.  It is hard

To believe that we saw

Snow in July, frost in September

Leaves changing color in June

Rain was common as were

Gray, cloudy skies.

People seemed out of sorts

No looking in the eyes

Or smiles on faces

We had plenty of events

Many things to do without

Leaving Gulliver or Manistique

Venders did well as people

Were eating more than normal

New boutique stores opened

And the Art Center was

A spirit lifter with local art

And one great art show

My neighbor said that

Sometimes he didn’t even

Know what year it was, but

Whatever year it was, it was

Too cold.  He no longer worries

As the angels came and took

Him away.  It was a sunny day.

Many hearts were broken

Today we accept what we have

Tomorrow and the next few days

Will be warm and there will

Be complaints.  That is how

Life works
