A Week Of Lower Case June Gloom In Southern California

________________________________________________________________________________________________

murky monday

in this room.

it's the domain
of june gloom

timid tuesday

under a grey sky

without any rain

to moisten the eye

whimsical wednesday

was almost fun:

with a fleeting wink 

from a shining sun

theatrical thursday

was no different

(and that description

is sufficient)

feckless friday

is a gloomy bummer

yet this is the month

that gives us summer

softly sunday

has us cheer:

we have only one month

with weather so queer

***
