A quiet day – in blazing sun
With city buzz toned down to hum
Where thirsty plants, quite cowed, await
Relief from heat – Vive Watergate!
Such lethargy - perhaps new phase?
We’re so unused to scorching rays;
With many people overheated,
“Get-up-and-go” stores are depleted!
Film festival in Cannes delights
As Belgian films attain new heights;
Miles Davis, jazzman with great flair,
Would have hit his century this year!
While Bram
Stoker’s brainchild: Dracula*
Has lived 130 years – so far!
These disparate facts – caught on the run
Are what make my writing fun!
