February in Verse: 1

oh,
how I long to
rush you kids outside
in only your stroller
no coats hats gloves socks boots scarves snowsuits booties snowpants mittens earmuffs
oh no,
it will just be you and the clothes you have on
dashing into the dazzling hot hot summer sun

although perhaps maybe i'll stop long enough to put
flip-flops
on our
feet

At least you didn't say "crocs."
