Fahrenheit, Celsius, and a Non-Sequitur Tree Frog
To ask what the temperature is today
Is too ask how high is up or low is down
For one must read what a red pointer says
In the arc of a circle or a line in a tube
The only true measures of temperature
Are sweating and shivering and just right
Those measures are of childhood and old age:
Sitting under an oak and reading in peace
A tree frog lives in the plastic rain gauge
When the rain falls he moves out ‘til it’s over
