"Back Again"

Swaying back and forth
Our weather adjusts and sways
Today it rains and maybe snows
But not quite the way it was

Yesterday it was breezy
Last week it was warm
Today it is wet
And tomorrow it may be dry

As the jet streams shift
North and then south,
Everything changes
But not quite the way it was.
