I peep outside - the mercury climbs
Dissolving urges to pen rhymes
Besides, there's not much news today
With many of you far away...
The workmen on the house next door
Bring wooden panels (for the floor?)
They still come early in their van
And make as much noise as they can!
I checked the cinema - no thrill;
In the summer lull how should I fill
My days? This often busy bee
Finds it a challenge to float free!
Filing and laundry up to date;
I'm staring at a empty plate ...
No matter! There are books to read
And plants to trim (they've gone to seed!)
Semi-retired is where I'm at;
With the heatwave coming, where's my hat?
Perhaps for work I shouldn't try ...
Time to «chill» outside and fry!
