Aloha poets,
Rainy holiday season inspires today's poetry. Enjoy!
Runoff Rules
Civil services its extinction course in streetlight fees
Water falls from the sky, America beyond apple trees
Animated roads, bridges, drinking water on the storm
National waterways in transit, wastewater a little warm
Government public burden now to transfer mode?
Schools, aviation, energy gain fees as motherlode
Public parks and recreation hazardous to health
Nonprofit community service needs gain stealth
Hazardous solid waste inland waterway ditch
Rails, levees, and dams hold onto a new itch
Budgets in biography feel new fees emerge
Wastewater system a drinking storm surge
Impervious surfaces where rain just rolls off
Rip roads with floods for new debris to scoff
Oil and pollutants go into nation's waterways
Government burden now to nonprofits stays
Fees bubble up as water falls from the sky
Drainage rain skyrockets new fees apply
Fire inspection fees for the poor and lax
School, hospital, church, a nonprofit tax
City service contribution solicit a volunteer
Roll out new fees by the first of the new year
Water from the sky drains national waterway
Fees new public burden, runoff rules the day
