Mischief

My whirligigs are whirling Since the wind has come to call And my windsocks’ arms are twirling Like they’re gearing for a brawl. The temperature is dropping Back to wintertime degrees And the gusts will not be stopping ‘Til we all begin to freeze. Mother Nature is enjoying Making mischief these days; hence, ‘Tween the seasons we’ll be buoying As she laughs at our expense.
