It’s the shortest day

Of the year,

As old Sol

Shifts his ass

Over the Equator.

Then the days

Get longer,

And the weather

Gets warmer.

Hah hah / Hah hah.

I told this to

Paw, the cat/kitten,

Black as black ice,

With one white mitten.

And,

If he didn’t laugh outright,

He at least

Smiled.
