Before the Weather Turns

Before the weather turns and the winds from Limbaugh come down around us
We'll again go to the woods, to the pond where mallard drake and hen
nest, to the cliff of swallows where ragged, broken roots cling to naught but rock.
We will cross the Sunridge and climb to Raspberry Mountain, shining in the pale
afternoon sun.

Before the weather turns and the gray clouds swell and hide the cerulean April sky.
