Why are we worried
When the temperature is twelve?
It is a heat wave!
When the temperature is twelve?
It is a heat wave!
Coffee is roasting;
The morning sun is rising.
(Is this a new day?)

My giant maple
Rooted firmly in the ground
Loyally won't fall.
Rooted firmly in the ground
Loyally won't fall.
Wrapped in frigid blue
News waits on end of driveway;
(It's no longer hot).
News waits on end of driveway;
(It's no longer hot).
In this subdued light
Black birds fly across the road
In utter silence.
Black birds fly across the road
In utter silence.
In the frigid snow
Small willowy pine saplings
Continue to grow.
Small willowy pine saplings
Continue to grow.
Bright shiny surface:
Sun slides across the iced snow
But doesn't touch it.
Sun slides across the iced snow
But doesn't touch it.
Clear ice crystals form,
But the water keeps flowing
In the wooden tub.
But the water keeps flowing
In the wooden tub.
