Climate

Humidity

I called my  love on the phone, to say hi!
Duplicating the moments around the sky 

With not many things to say :-) 
I asked about the climate per say

A nice way to converse,
Nonstop heat throughout the universe

Smiling, without many words to share
I stroked the phone, describing the hot air.

"It’s getting hot outside"
I'm just here Enjoying the sunrise."

--Smooth and slow the steam in Aspen has me beat
--Suddenly 99.9 degrees was the new rising heat

I chuckled and added, -looks like 100% chance of rain
Keeping myself inside, with a wetness calming sane

A new flash flood coming in
Reminding him how easy it is to slip in mud

I continued to talk and toke
Then he joined me with a joke.

Replying, with a tease.

         "Wow!"
I feel the wetness over there
I would not mind taking a dive in THAT flood
Don't worry I know how to handle slippery mud
---from back to front. 
It's looking gloomy out here without  my love
Down here in Mandalay it drips a lot
Pure satisfaction when the climate in Aspen gets hot
Could you be kind in sending a picture of how wet it is down there?
I will call you back when the drizzling stops over here.

Girl you absolutely slay me! I've never seen anyone use puns so provocatively clever before! Or is it just my dirty old mind? Either way I loved this poem. You have S-mail!!

Hey! I used to play in the Aspen music festival every summer. It's cold as hell in the morning, doesn't get too hot in the afternoon. You must have hit some bad days. "On the Road to Mandalay, where the flying fishes play." Hey, that's Rudyard by God Kipling! Good write, oh destroyer of poets. Love, daver
