Florida Heat

10/25/18
October and in the 90s’
Not the way it should be
Need some shade and water
The heat will be the death of me.
The air is thick as molasses
The humidity sticks to the skin
No rain to bring relief
I better stay in again.
The sun feels like a furnace
Seems the days afire
Trees and shrubs are silent
And asphalt sears the feet.
Is it Global warming?
Will November give respite?
Can we expect cooler weather?
I’ll keep my air conditioner on high!
