At last the rain comes
a watering holiday

Dry spell continues
after such a wet winter
a summer-like spring

Who needs a summer?
already the swifts’ shrill cries
fill gorgeous blue skies

Ever so slightly cool
Soft wind sweetly blows
gently soothing sun-soaked skin
it’s not yet summer

These summer-spring days
small compensation for the
lock down misery

Although I have to say that I am enjoying the slower pace and quiet streets. Of course the full horror of the virus is too much to bear, but I am clinging to simple pleasures.
Coat or no coat?

A cool autumn breeze
licks at my summer garments
the faintest shiver.

Laic217 has only gone and smashed it again, with this exquisitely summery scene. I can’t make up my mind whether the tree shade on the piece actually adds to the ambience, I don’t think it particularly detracts from it, which is not usually the case with shadows and street art.
This is a masterful piece by Laic217 with many of the features we are accustomed to seeing in his work… the bucket hat and smiley and a skeleton spraying, although the sspray paint seems to have been replaced with sun cream or something more gloopy. The crowning glory of the piece though is the shirt.
Laic217 works so hard on his fabrics and this Hawaiian shirt with tiger motifs has pretty much blown everything I have seen previously out of the water. I just don’t know how he has got the tiger print to look so good using a spray can – quite extraordinary. This is an artist whose work just goes from strength to strength and I just can’t get enough of it.
Dew fall

Pin-prick droplets touch
gently from dark starry skies;
dew in the morning.

Quintessential summer’s day
Lawnmowers buzzing
and a radio cuts through,
England – India

A hotter than usual day
How sweet the cool air
brought in on southwesterlies
summer came and went.
