More Howling Wind

Another cold front slid through
Cool, clear with wind that blew
And, blew & blew some more
Is this what we have in store..
Differences 'tween High & Low
Bigger the diff, bigger the blow
Seems to be new, standard thing
Branches falling, leave fluttering
Spring often comes with a breeze
But, 2020, to gale force, an increase
'Til Wednesday, a danger of frost
Already, gardens have been lost
Not mine, got 'em covered or in
Thursday before planting again
But, by the weekend, may be hot
It's Spring, wildness what ya got
Most..everyday on Earth

Quake numbers still quite low
Finally a respite for Puerto Rico
Southern San Andreas a slip today
Off Japan, 5.8 subduction sway
A 5.5 in high desert, N. Chile'
Indonesia, 5.6 in Banda Sea
Seems normal, Cali leading way
With quakes in the USA
Has not been story for awhile
Maybe fracking outta style
Fewer driving or flying
Oil & gas prices dying
Ahhhh
Maybe only $5 billion this quarter
At least less global disorder
One pandemic at a time
Hard to care about exxon slime
Any day on Earth

Today might be first day to see
Well below bright Venus; Mercury!
Speedy innermost world
Has just unfurled
From behind the sun
Into SW sky, making a run
In 10 days two'll be side by side
For now just watch 'em glide
Venus down, Mercury on rise
Up early tomorrow? a lovely surprise
Saturn, Jupiter with Moon below
For early risers, quite the show
Thursday morn, moon near Mars
If up, check the morning "stars"
Until then, prepare for wind
And, a hat that it won't send
Flying off your head
And, to prevent being dead
Be smart
Stay apart
Is it worth worrying about your hair
With a killer virus out there?
With wild hair I'm OK
To keep virus at bay
Maybe prez could use a trim
Get a little virus in him..:)
Today On Earth
