And Soon, Snow - Nov. 13, 23025

October 4th and I step outside,

an arm-clutching 61 degrees

you may laugh, but fall starts

fast here and ends even faster

deserts quick-change both

days and seasons

in the blink of a few weeks

snow may cover the peaks

while hammocks are still employed

and skin does a summer burn

in one day, you might see

a snowman and bikinis

maybe slip on ice

then slip some into a drink

or bite a hotdog

with a mouth still defrosting
