All shrubbery around is shaken by the wind As smoking grey clouds threaten rain. But I sit snugly in my lounge Idly contemplating a chicken-breast tea.
The long heatwave is over For now. Atlantic air has swept the mugginess Aside. Thermometers have settled down While cooler moisture sooths our very souls.
This lounge of mine presents a landscape too: Of settee, armchairs and table Along with dining chairs and TV: Mountains over carpet savannas.
But the kitchen calls me from next door So no matter how lazy I feel I really have to eat now. This interlude must end So very soon.
