Summer of 2006

Summer soared in heat and drought
Many wild fires across the land and thought
News of Iraq’s war became more
A chronic phenomenon of pain and sore
* * * * *
Torture was legalized by Senate and House
One side of the isle played the other as cat does mouse
Boogeyman of Cold War has changed name
It is North Korea and Iran, but story remains the same
* * * * *
Gas price shot up like Old Faithful
Every day of this summer as a rule
Energy again became the subject of talks
Recommended for health, bicycle and long walks
