TheBanyanTree: on the hottest day

This poem had me sweating and reaching for a fan.
I like its rhythm and coherence.

Checked out the Bloomington weather at weatherstreet.com
"108 to 113 in the evening"!!  80% humidity..  Whew.
I've always feared cold more than heat but a fellow I know
from Mexico is more afraid of heat.  He said "You can only
get so naked." 

Sounds like the most comfortable hours there may be those
just before sunrise.

What a wonderful thing to do, turn heat into a poem.

Cheers,
Tom
