Come Rain Or Shine

So hot
So humid
But moan I must not
For this our summer
We’ve waited all year
and now it’s arrived
moans are all that I hear
We moan if it rains
and if it’s too hot
We moan when the wind blows
or when it does not
We talk of the weather
way into the night
For whatever the weather
there’s someone who might
enjoy it
or loath it
but one things
for sure
there’s no other subject ~ that’s talked about more

Tom Cunningham Date: 9/9/2021 12:20:00 AM You're right there Ann, had a lovely few days of lovely weather now its gone again. Autumn is coming. Hope you're well Tom Login to Reply Ann Gilmour Date: 9/9/2021 2:45:00 AM It has been stifling here hence the inspiration for the above poem... Last night we had a massive storm which was really quite refreshing and it has certainly cleared the air. I am ok and I hope you are too. With kindest thoughts Ann xx
