the beach town where I live had a VERY hot day.
It was so flaming warm that birds fell from the sky
and cows toppled over dead before they knew why.
Who knew Santa Barbara held the record for so long
without becoming known for weather that's weird and wrong?
I've long wondered why the June gloom fog surprises everyone.
Perhaps that day long ago is why we're known for summer sun.
