Change

Bitter cold is on the way

And it will stay for several days.

Zero and the single digits

Cold is measured by our physics.

To document our current temps

We must have measure instruments.

We’ve invented ways to see

The temp observed comparatively.

We know the temp when water freezes

When it boils, and releases

Vapors into all the air.

Of these temps we are aware.

We divide the temps between

Water in it’s two extremes.

Centigrade divides to 100.

Fahrenheit is a conundrum.

We’ve only had these scales of temp

Since the 1780s, then did we invent

The Fahrenheit scale, so since that time

Temperature records could be in line.

Our temperature records before then

Are not in line with what has been.

We can’t be sure of accuracy

Only temp changes generally.

Thank You, Father, for times invention.

I know it flows by Your intention.

We all exist within its flow.

We live the now, where change is slow.
