A Cold Morning in Las Vegas

dawn turns the sky blue
wind blows through an olive tree
at nine miles per hour

I checked the weather channel this morning and checked for the weather in Las Vegas. According to that website it is 29 degrees this morning, but it feels like 20 degrees. It as if the temperatures were in the low twenties when I took the trash and recyclables to the curb. It was so cold that my finger hurt, I think I need to get a pair of gloves.

my arthritic joins
make cold mornings painful
put gloves on my list
