lime coloured linen shirts
are meant for summers
like white trousers
and pink rainbow roots.
not much sense
in wasting them on winter
it broods and dampens
all the chic brown boots.
the local street ruffians
are now aged 10 to 16
dislike bright colours
and meekly timed hoots.
now the time for heat
season for sweat and cola
drink the pretty umbrella
burn the shapely suits.
