Encapsulating June

It's said that good things come in threes
Like waves upon a shore
Yesterday was one of these
Three postcards through my door!

So the holiday season has begun
Though students are revising
Stress-ridden almost every one
It's crunch time – not surprising!

The weather as we reach mid year
For once is warm and dry
But it's muggy, from which I infer
A thunderstorm nearby.

This month three famous men have died:
Iraq's Tariq Aziz
Christopher Lee, who's mourned world wide
And James Last – who just is!
