Solar Companions

A Poem by Earl Schumacker
"

When the sun comes out

"

Solar Companions


Gentle power rises from the west mad prairie like settlement

Driven as a demon from above the mountain grays discontent

City dwellers know this as cumulonimbus low altitude weather

Traveling their way at 10 feet per second by the satellite projection

Commencing surface to 6,500 feet up or better or so they say or let on

Variables here suggest wind speeds come on quickly

Heavy precipitation drinks up the sun in low lands down

The better to get wet with high level winds if sanity prevails

Influenced by no one in particular on the solar ecliptic measuring stick

One drip at at a time or drop if you prefer or please

Out comes the sun

It knows what to do
