Our weather goddess

Morwenna

In from a day out,

Sleepy with sunshine

Supper on trays

A glass of red

Smooth, bitter, good.

 

We raise our glasses, clink.

‘To the goddess!’

‘To the goddess!’

 

She looks after us

So we praise her – and,

She looks after us,

We believe. We don’t believe.

Of course we don’t!

 

Yes, we do.

Who else to thank for our good luck

With weather?

 

We raise our glasses, clink

‘To the goddess!’

    if i too, lived
    in that idyllic, postcard scenic
    inspiringly beautiful, jewel
    of wonderful Scotland
    I would be toasting, what good fortune
    gifted my reality, such
    a dreamy slice of life..
    (i spent years going to n from Edinburgh, daily
    but always missed out on getting to visit North Berwick
    cos of weather or schedule
    still regret it
    but, hopefully will come back
    someday
    my dear Scotland, land
    of
    'beautiful Nature, curating
    beautifully natured, people')
    say Hi, to that majestic
    Scottish sky for me
    as I too
    toast, to your good fortune
    🍻
    thanks for sharing

    Reads like a joyous frame of mind to find oneself in.

      I will certainly toast those skies
      Again today. A glass of red
      For that changing cloudy,
      Blue, grey, rainy, sunshiny
      Sky.
      Four seasons in a day in Scotland.
      Today at the hillside
      Of Dawck
      Under the tall trees
      And in the sweet scent of rhododendrons.
      We admired the skies framing the lovely hills

      Thank you dear LB
      For taking time
      To write a wee poem for me.
