A Stormy Relationship

Steve Cochrane 1955 (Cape)

Rhymed
Weather or not you noticed,
Your tone is an afront to me.
Your occluded ways I can see
Because you do not focus.

On boundaries you do not cross.
Yes, you afront each day and night
Both hot and cold in lightning bright.
So many friends you've lost.

Your stationary friendship will
Not be more than a dense
And clashing high pressure since
Your windy ways can "kill"!
