More and more storms.
The day never grew,
dawn never brightened nor noon,
storm and the dim light of the sea bed
all the summer joy we had.
Dawn never brightened nor noon,
cloud hung heavy, a thick bank of grey.
Who would know that behind the sun blazed?
Storm and the dim light of the sea bed,
but no fish darted among the damp weeds.
I picked over the damage, rain and wind-battered things,
all the summer joy we had,
a tangled mess of breakages now,
that the late sun won’t mend.

Makes me go, “hmmmm”
Very nice
Thank you 🙂 It’s making me go, oh no, not again!
Wow–you are getting so many storms. That’s unusual, isn’t it? And a June day that never gets bright is just sad.
There’s another one on the way. Yes, it is unusual. It’s not as though it’s even hot. It’s cold for the season now.
Oh, weird! I don’t think we’re supposed to get rain until later in the week, but it’s very hot here–92 F, feels like 100 “they” say, and hotter tomorrow and Wednesday.
We’ve got rain and storms until Thursday then two days of sunshine before the storms are back at the weekend.
I guess we’re going to get your storms on Thursday then, and we can share them over the weekend.
Won’t that be fun?
😀
It could be interesting for the Oracle.
Ha ha!
😀
It’s been like that here today 💜
And its like that here again today!
At 8am today it was 78, humid and gray. Mother nature is not happy.
Pat
She’s certainly letting us know it!
Reblogged this on DEEZ – NOW: —-> BOOKS.ESLARN-NET.DE.
Oh, thats not fine. I always had thought the South of France is the area of silence (beside the hunters). The ancient Greeks would have said the gods are angry. 😉 Have a nice day! xx Michael
It was deadly silence yesterday until the storm started. No sound at all except the birds. The weather is very strange at the moment.
Again?
And again. It’s never ending, and it’s not even hot!
It’s 39 in Belgrade right now. Not a drop. Like in the oven.
Phew! I wish I could send you some of this cold rain and wind. I’ve had enough for a lifetime this year.
If only we could swap.
I don’t envy Vancouver…
I just got back to Munich. It’s cloudy, rainy and freezing. 14 degrees, and I wasn’t ready for this. Why hasn’t anyone warned me?
Those kind of temperature changes could kill.
I got a cold now. No wonder.
Hope it’s only a cold…
Feeling better today, thanks.
That’s good news! If you’re still up for a bit of rain, I can send you some. Lots. Storms on the way again. Meanwhile, it just pours.
Incredible. Here, I see it’s sunny today, and as of tomorrow, it’ll be raining a lot, which is nth unusual for Germany, but a bit too much for France.
It rained all of May, all of June except for about 8 days of heat wave. In July we had a day without rain but it’s back since yesterday afternoon set to rain and storm most of next week too. They haven’t even made a first cut of hay, and no sign of when they’ll be able to start. The stuff won’t be any good as fodder if the rain goes on much longer.
And they call this summer?!
I’m still waiting…
Ominous. (K)
The sunshines in the weather forecast are getting further and further away.
At least our storms come and go, even if almost daily.
They stop for short periods, like an hour or so, but the cloud is moving so fast it’s obvious there’s more on the way. It’s pouring now.
I hope the sun returns soon.
Came out yesterday afternoon and we ought to have it intermittently today and tomorrow then back to the storms.
