Calm after the storm

This morning dawns at 61 degrees with sky as blue as the sparkling glass that I collect on my window ledge,
Reminding me of the cool crisp dew- drenched mornings of my childhood.
I could wish for an un-ending summer like this
But I am in the land of heat and humidity
So I will be grateful for this day and
revel in the need for a sweater.

A motorcycle rests on its side; a semi blocks the lane.
Paramedics huddle while emergency vehicles scream for an opening through traffic snarled for miles.
Temporarily inconvenienced, I will go home and eat Chinese takeout with my family
While someone else’s evening spirals into horror with a squeal of a tire and a blindsided swerve.
