On This Kind of Day

The weatherman says it will be 85 But it now feels like 72. So what should I wear? Out the window I glance, Thinking people will give me a clue. Yet from what I can see, it’s a very mixed bag – There are t-shirts and sandals and shorts, Though I also see long-sleeves and jackets and jeans, Which all go with both weather reports. Yes, on this kind of day, there’s a wide-ranging arc – Any item of clothing will do And since I’m always cold, I’ll wear layers to peel, So I’ll comfortably muddle on through.

When I lived in Montana, people would be wearing flipflops, shorts, and a parka.
