Between Time

We’re now in between time; The closet’s in flux. Dressing’s a problem And clothing’s the crux. Turtleneck? T-shirt? Long pants or Capris? Boots worn with tights Or just socks to the knees? Temp’s one day 80, The next 52; Sift through my dresser – Don’t know what to do. Short-sleeved tops nestled Near sweaters of wool. Time for decisions; The drawers are too full. The closet has waiting My jackets, some light. Hard to tell which one Will help me feel right. Between time just happens But doesn’t last long. At least in the winter, I won’t be dressed wrong!

This is good. I lived in Chicago many years The Spring Season didn't last long. We had long winters. Now here in Texas, we have long Summers, but when Spring time comes All the trees are green. I always live in Spring, that's the name of my City. Lucy
