Notice of absence from Tom Dylan

Sorry if there is a delay in replying or if I'm away for short periods. Sometimes life gets in the way. As John Lennon says, life is what happens while you're busy making other plans.

The summer sun beats down
from clear blue skies
I sit out, enjoying the glow
on my skin. I close my eyes
and it feels like recharging,
like therapy.
Then night falls
and the dark room is like
an oven.
Sleep is a concept I can't
comprehend
like chemical equations
I can't solve.
Lying in a room
plus the lateness of the hour
does not equal sleep.
Not tonight.
And I long for the hypnotic
falling of the autumn rain
and those cold winter nights.

Should get into the portable air conditioning business.
Haha, yes I really should! 🙂
☀️ ☀️ ☀️ You got your vitamin D, I can't understand why you are complaining about losing some brain cells at night, Tom. ☀️ ☀️ ☀️
Do I understand? Yeh – that’s me most summers…..
Yeah, the beer garden was lovely, just the trying to sleep was a pain.:-) Cheers, Tom.
Andrew Huberman's Non sleep deep rest protocol hahaha...
May you find what's missing to enable what's missing
Cheers!
Cheers, Alan. 🙂
Doh! When it autumnal or wintry, we wish for Spring and Summer - and vice versa?! lol
You making that hay while the sun shines? How much hay have ya made?! lol.
I can't afford to lose any more of my 3 brain cells - as Dave mentions brain cells! lol.
Haha, thanks Orchi! 🙂
What? Fed up with the sun already? It’s only just started. Scorchio is yet to come. Please don’t wish autumn and more rainfall just yet Tom. Open the window or get some air conditioning. Problem solved. I enjoyed your poem.
Haha, thanks Cassie. I do enjoy the days, it's the nights I struggle with. 🙂 Yep, maybe air-con or sleeping in the garden. Cheers, Tom.
Inthe British weather we can get all four seasons in one day Tom. LOL
Andy
That's so true. No sooner is everyone setting up garden furniture and bbq's, the heavens open and the downpour begins. 🙂 Cheers, Tom.
