Laughing, to keep from crying ...

Poem Artwork

Thought I would never see
Hell before dying.  Lived
in Utah in 'eighty --
THE YEAR OF THE HEAT WAVE
TO END ALL HEAT WAVES down
Texas way.  It was bad.
Every day on the
news, they'd report the high
and tell how many died:
TOLD you it was bad.  I
told my brother:  I will
NEVER live in Texas. 
BIG MOUTH.  You never say
'never' because you will.
Joined the Air Force three years
later, came to Texas,
never left --- been here for
twenty eight years now.  And
now we're on pace to break
the record set way back
then.  No relief in sight.

(c) 2011, Karla Dorman (8/2)

Karla, the heat and drought in Texas have been oppressive this year.
My last trip to Texas, other than an airport terminal, was more than twenty years ago now. In July and it was hot in the panhandle. I had been in Texas the year before that and two years consecutivey prior to that. From Dallas to Amarillo it was hot and dry. In Brownsville it was hot and humid. Stay in the cool and keep a weary eye on the weather. I bid you love and peace my dear friend. Jon Michael

Yep, I loved visiting the great state of Texas and getting to see the Texas Speedway but I was lucky not there in heat of mid summer.

So sorry for the living, or nonliving conditions in Texas. Whenever I hear of the heat there, I think of you and your sister and do hope that you both are well and surviving the heat.
