May’s final days
Feeling like
March and April
Never left.
Fall/winter clothes
Parade across town
In damp weather.
Dancing between raindrops
Nimble grace
Of a martial artist
Through katas.
Cursing passing vehicles
Gunning their motors
Through puddles
Without a pause.
Dirty water tsunamis
Swamp pedestrians.
Frustrated sighs
One response
Heading to work/home.

Author’s note: Environment Canada has issued its prediction of a wet summer for the
provinces of Ontario and Quebec, while western Canada is expected to have a hot and
dry summer, leading to more forest fires, for the region.
