eyes to the skies

early evening

severe storm warnings

eerie light 

above

weirdly calm

then 

windy

bluejays flitting

about

let's draw up the blankets

and put this one

to bed

 

that moment when...

after an anxious day

when you had to reschedule

a coffee meeting with

a long loved friend

due to a 

'special weather statement'

eyes to the skies

for potential funnel clouds

you open the wooden door

and it sticks

due to humidity

swelling

~

and so does you heart

wishing eveyone well

safe 

keeping

whoever

wherever

you

are

late monday afternoon

poplar branches bending

in a gentle breeze

dappled shadows dancing

on the patio

buttercup butterfly flitting around

daisies waiting to bloom

late late spring

that feels

like

summer
