A Summer Snowstorm Cold

Another weird day... that Mother Nature... sent my way.

As I was sitting in my rowboat...at a pond at Martha's Vineyard I was fishing with my headphones on...listening to Lynyrd Skynyrd Suddenly, a chilling wind...my god, I almost froze While fishing with some sun-block on...a snowflake hit my nose With "Freebird" blasting in my head...I paddled to the shore I beached my boat, got dressed for winter...and fished a little more As I rowed my boat to my fishing spot...the wind and snowflakes ease The sun came out and warmed me up...fishing was a breeze The temperature had dropped that day...as the summer was getting old But heck, the only thing I caught that day...was a summer snowstorm cold

Oh my! A summer snowstorm cold. Not good. I hope it is better now. But this poem is great with how you explained what happened on your fishing trip in the weather! I enjoyed it :)
