cool breeze caresses my skin
sun is warm and gentle,
birds sing, hop through the branches
waves lap at the lake shore………….
But not today -
temperatures soared to the heights
breeze muddled hot air
sun burned through my hat
birds nestled deep in the trees
concrete too hot for bare feet.
But it’s only temporary……..
“It was the type of day that could wilt a metal gatepost.”
~ Colin Cotterill, Thirty-Three Teeth
