Hazy, hot and humid - has been the menu item for today
As we've suddenly been launched into the base of summer's ways
And the discomfort it causes us, was felt both outside and in ...
Ending floods we've experienced over past three months of spring
Plenty of rain we've had, to help vegetables, fruits and trees grow
Not to mention the grass, which we'll now have to mow and mow and mow
But it also filled up reservoirs, springs, and wells, so we'll have plenty fresh
Which we will definitely need, now that summer is here, with all of its tests
