Hello my lovely readers
Another short post tonight, due to a combination of loadshedding and family visits. This one is about a different kind of power - wind.
8th December 2019
I write, tonight, a brief homage to wind
(penned quickly before I am blown away)
for whilst, in England, it is not my friend,
it feels much nicer in the Cape Town bays.
I grant sometimes it's still a nasty shock
and makes my muscles become rather tense;
but, when the sunshine streaming down is hot,
I have a more secure line of defence.
The Cape Doctor's what I'd call 'affirming'
(and not because we now have the same title).
It fills me with a hope instead of yearning.
Its warm companion weather makes it subtle.
I might not hold this sentiment in winter
but right now I refuse to let it splinter.
