Today is Hot
Today is hot; tomorrow, not.
This summer’s been like this a lot.
It’s tough to know which way to go
When making outdoor plans and so,
You must choose twice, that’s my advice,
For just one thought will not suffice.
A lovely hike, which you might like,
Won’t work if temps begin to spike
And pouring rain would be a pain
And cause all parties to complain.
An indoor spot when it is hot
Might be the best choice you have got.
A place to start is where there’s art
Or dinosaurs to tell apart
Or go to eat on any street,
For that can always be a treat.
Once plans are made, don’t be afraid
To change them if your mind’s been swayed
By Nature’s kinks or sidewise winks,
Since that won’t help at all, methinks.
