Summertime! Summertime! So glad you're here!
Apricity, grilling, picnics galore
help us appreciate you soooo much more
as Covid-19 has brought most everyone fear.
Warm weather activities all around
entice forbidden choice which does abound--
water sports, basking in alluring sun--
have beaches packed along gulf, bay, ocean.
Rivers and lakes add boating, fishing too;
camping, floating, rafting, a gumbo roux
and not a few more add to the allure--
such a tempting lot most do adore.
Social distancing does not fit the scheme,
nor does the nightmarish midnight dream
of sickness and death, the 'wakening scream.'

Spinning! Spinning! Still, but Spinning! The contents are naught but a blur . . . open windows appear opaque. Seemingly still, but moving fast on triangular pedestal perched tall, straight above the tip. Bulbous body -- visual blip -- spinning, spinning while standing tall. How long can such sweet posture last? Not one jiggle the spin doth make -- spinning, spinning -- faster, faster. Then just a slight wobble is seen, then one more if your eyes are keen -- then the top can be seen again.
