Saharan Breeze on Suffolk Shores

out of focus beach and sea at sunset with a couple seen in the distant background and magenta wild flower in the foreground
That special summer evening.
Whispering Saharan breeze
on Suffolk shores.
Warmth gently caressing,
sensually embracing.
Soft silken touch.

Tomorrow is Monday.
Today is paradise.
Let this last forever.
Shall we stay?
A B&B?

Reluctantly, we turn and leave
this strangely tropical coast tonight.
Bliss has to end.
As did our love.

That rare heated air will return,
and I will cherish its soft warmth.
But will intimate love?
A warm embrace, a soft caress.
Sharing a special summer evening.

Anon.

First Wave

Some we lost, for some it was days, for some it simply never went away. Three years of changes, yet no change at all.  It’s like the infection put up a wall. Now 2 million people whose lives have been changed, life plans on hold, p ermanently re-arranged. Anon, For Long Covid Sufferers

Lace-like Shadows

Dancing with lace-like shadows of forgotten worlds, the tortoiseshell creeps slowly, the last energies to lie upon the rough bark. With folded wings, Madame butterfly is no more til Spring. Charlotte
