Whither 2021?
Withered like the one before.
You know, that 2020 one
Of which we’ll speak fornevermore.
Our world didn’t burn as much.
That hurdle, though, ‘sbeen lowered so
That while the crossbar doesn’t touch
Our toetops, there’s not far to go.
Willamette Valley freezing rain
In February shattered trees
Thus sparing them come June the pain
Of 47 (C) degrees.
Weather records fell like sleet:
Hottest! Wettest! Strongest wind!
The good news is, if you love heat
Or cold, the climate’s now your friend.
Another happy note as well
For those to optimism tending:
We’re more acclimatized to Hell
With each year like the one that’s ending!
No doubt remains that we’re to blame
For messing with the Earth so long,
But from that fact one good thing came:
We’ve finally proved Sam Clemens wrong!
