Smokey Summer

A hazy mist hovers over most of North America. The source is from wildfires in the forests of Canada. It comes from our neighbors in the true north strong and free. Dense smoke during days is what we all see. Summer heat and humidity is more than enough of a pain. We wish for cooler temperatures and some rain. A big factor is some prolonging summer drought. So Canada, do your best to put those fires out.

Oh, you ain't kidding! We haven't seen it yet in Seattle but often experience it each Summer. Well-written poem on such an important issue.
