The weather as a topic for the unsure
proceeds, modifies the landscape pure
it may have caused a weathered stone
a worn ravine sculpted by a river's cone
or the drift of wind to push a system out
and an upcurrent of air to feed a spout...

the weather is a topic for the human kind
a way to spot which entity has a variable mind
relaxes the straw chewer on wooden rockers
tips sport heroes at changing room lockers


that there's something else left to be said
I feel that some discourses need to be fed
whether it's a bitter cold spell
what else is there left to tell?...


with an immediate phrase of what must be said
weather talk is a clever decoy,
subtler images are read
whether it be a fine weather forecast
a mild dry air system that lasts...


the first line goes "nice day, isn't it?"
as listener's ears ache for another tid bit....
