Lèse-majesté

Suddenly, mysteriously
that amazingly unexpected
onset of early summer
so swift a transition
while spring was aborning
where we grumpily felt
vexed over humid heat
and hungry mosquitoes
has all disappeared. Was
it a mirage, shimmering
before our senses to
tease and bewilder? Or
a lesson learned that
as much as nature
is feisty and fickle, given 
to weather histrionics,
our own failings of 
dissatisfied entitlements
confuse the issue of supreme
command and the ruled.
