The day was bright
No sunshine, but
Almost blinding gray
Clouds. Nature is not
Predictable. Before you
Know it there is rain and
Then finally some sunshine.
Birds are scarce today and
There is no noticeable breeze.
Outside work can be done
Without much suffering.
Bugs are not out biting and
It is almost joyous to be
Outside. The lake water is
Very calm and no boats
Or play toys are visible.
I am inside feeling a slight
Chill. I am waiting for an
Operation on my gallbladder
Which is scheduled for
The 25th of July. This will be
The third attempt with
Infection getting in the way
Of the first two attempts. A
Week from now I hope I am
Sitting right here and healed.
