Tortoise Days

Recently, a box turtle, every walk
Yesterday's mail check, roused a hawk
Tortoises: big & small, w/ patterns unique
Seems, mossy path cruising they seek
When big dog & I come around
They all quickly hunker down
Breyer gives a sniff & moves on
Turtles emerge slowly as we're gone
Big dog just wandered in
I know where that boy's been
Out romping with his girlfriend
Now on cool floor w/ heavy pantin'
Pantin' cuz it's getting hot
Summertime is what we got
Southern wind bringing humidity back
Nearby, Sahara dust cloud attack
Add in some western wildfire smoke
Gulf Coast air will make ya choke
Not much chance of storms today
Dust might pump up sunset display
Other displays, near 1/4 moon
🌓
Passing Virgo's Spica soon
While Arcturus sparkles above
This morning, Venus, goddess of love
Dazzled 'tween Aldebaran & Pleiades
Way too early for me to sees:)
After several days with a big shake
Today, mag. 5.1 biggest earthquake
Today On Earth

Another 45,000 COVID-19 cases
YESTERDAY
600 more Americans, virus erases
YESTERDAY
19 refers to 2019, year of viral advent
Fact not known by moron president
USA adrift, like a crew-less ship
At the top, zero leadership
More excuses, blame & lies
On to next rally he flies
Our national super-spreader
Down the ramp, oh, a near header..
Look, he can drink from a glass
Embarrassing, sad, our royal ass
Have to hope this soon shall pass
That we can dig outta this morass
But, it will not be easy
To wipe off this sleazy
No one willing to listen or share
Whole lotta mean & stupid out there
So, you stay safe, be smart
Mask up, stay home or apart
Today On Earth
