Partially cloudy, some chance of rain

What horse limps down yon calle,
so redolent of English summers past?

What reptile lies submerged
beneath those tranquil waters?

Days of innocence yield to reckoning
and reconciliation.

Tree-shaded streets give way to railway lines
and the steady scratch of cicadas.

Horizon-lust to keeping-going.

Summer comes on Friday.

It gives the feel of a hot summer day, though you say it does't start til Friday. Seems like warm comfort drawing on gentle musings, and gently to deeper perceptions. Rhiannon

Hi Rhiannon. Thanks.

Yes. Friday at 10:00. Or maybe 10:15.

I need to check.

Still officially spring until later this month apparently.

these lines seem "redolent" with heat and sleepiness

Certainly sleepy, Di_Hard.
