2275


as the heat deepens
before the rainy season -
outburst of Poui

Long ago The Corpus Christi holiday served as a marker for the Rainy Season. [Corpus Christi this year was May 31st] It was a day to plant for every one who had the smallest bit of backyard space. Now the days get hotter and the rains come it seems, when it pleases. And we wait for the Met Office to tell us The Rainy Season is here. So here we are folks in the month of June and its still hot hot here.

I remember when the weather, as related to seasons, was predictable too Gillena.
Now it seems it does what it wants or what we have made it...
