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.

Forty winks

 

Feeling lethargic

and happy to be engulfed

by slumberland’s spell.

Maritime influence

 

Mainland Europe burns

as strong winds quash such intent

on the British Isles.

Humidity

 

Each breath more effort

and though it remains quite cool

I sense summer’s thrust.

Entrance/exit

Welcome visitor

shaft of sunlight floods the room

before exiting.

Surface water

 

Motorway journey

perilous in driving rain

wipers on full speed

Die Fledermaus

.

My heart uplifted

watching tiny bats flap by

as day becomes night.

B.S.T.

 

Absent without leave

an hour wisely recovered

with a morning snooze.

Juxtaposition

 

Northern hemisphere

writers scribble winter thoughts;

its sunny down south.
