Back to Flat Water

The river was wild yesterday
But, storms missed or went away
And, today Rappahannock is flat
Glassy and serene, how 'bout that
Might be storms later on
Tomorrow seems rain will be along
Seems time to get more golfing in
Casually, nothing to win
Very quiet earthquake day
Only one above 5 making Earth sway
Volcano list down to 22
Hope there are none near you
Sabancaya in Peru
25 explosions/day blasting thru
Piton de la Fournaise still oozing basalt
But, not enough to make island assault
Eruption near Tonga under the waves
Did some ocean surface repaves
30cm x 2.5km x 35km raft of Pumice
Smelled of sulfur, sailors took notice
The only thing we know for sure
Earth changes slowly or in a blur
 Waning moon almost Last quarter
Means Neap tides & mellow water
Brown dog napping, what a good boy
Nearby a bone, his favorite toy
Hope you have a lovely day
Hope a nap comes your way
Or get up and out and play
But, please
Enjoy your ride on Earth today!
