TOP Summertime..

SUMMERTIME
The window is above my head
but I can see the sky and I
can study the cloud patterns and
the movement of the wind and rain.

I watched the clouds go by today,
they moved slowly from right to left
across the ever changing screen
across my living canvas too
across my four foot two by two
of window pane above my head.

The sunlight is so strong these days
it must be summertime again.

  1. When the sky's not grey from horizon to horizon, you can say it's summer in UK.

  3. Those clouds are getting faster, thicker and darker as I type.
    Me thinks Summer is a confidence trickster ;-)
