In the summer, when it’s Kansas
style humid hot, I imagine living
in the northern states- Michigan-
Wisconsin- closer to where I grew
up. There is much about the north
I love. Especially the trees and lakes.
Then I get a picture text, like the
one above, and remember. Snow
packed roofs, dirty street plowed snow,
higher than your house at the end
of the driveway. Melt, the inevitable
melt. King of the Hill snow hills,
still standing in May. And, just
like that, I don’t consider living north
again till July or August.
