Enough Is Enough

It's the seventh of June and the heat is turned on. 
Yesterday was sunny, but today that's all gone.
It's rained, it's blown, it's been downright mean.
This is the worst excuse for Spring I've ever seen.

I'm cold, I'm cranky, I'm sick of the rain.
This miserable weather's going to drive me insane.
About six days so far the sun has come out
but it doesn't stay long, of that have no doubt.

I miss the real Spring of warm breezes and flowers,
walking in sunshine, soaking up sun by the hours.
The rain and the wind have chilled me to the bone.
I wonder if Mother Nature will pick up her phone

when I call to complain, gripe and whine too,
to tell her this weather, it simply won't do.
Enough is enough , this has gone on too long.
Sunshine  come back here where you belong.

A beautiful day full of sunshine and good cheer. I am so happy to be able to read your poetry this morning Francine. I wish you a weekend of sunshine and joy and hope you continue to find the inspiration to continue your writing. Will be back reading come Monday I hope. Sending sunshine your way please send some of your rain this way. Love, Caro

Great write, Francine. I'll trade you NW Florida's hot, humid weather for your colder weather. Hope it warms up for you soon. Love, Kim

If the New York stock market can go up as it did this past Wednesday, then presumably anything can turn around for the better. Hang in there Francine, better weather has to be on the way.
