Assess storm impact –
Sheet of ivy torn from wall ~
Wind at work for me.

Assess storm impact –
Sheet of ivy torn from wall ~
Wind at work for me.
December morning –
Thinking of those whom I love ~
Wind batters my shed.
Sunny and windy –
What we call ‘Odin weather’ ~
Sheltered nerines sway.
Buffeted by wind –
And by life in general ~
Head down and chin up.
Rain, then stormy wind –
Handy and tricky in turn ~
Folding tarpaulins.
Ground soaking up rain –
Except where I left buckets ~
Signs of New Normal.
Big storm coming in –
Taking down the tent – Jaysus ~
That spider was big.
A big thunderstorm –
A chat between light and sound ~
Yes I know, I know.
Life in warmer climes –
For the first time in his life ~
His hardening feet.
