Summer Mornings.
All summer mornings are more or less like this one. The sun still comes up quite early, although it is slowly starting to come up later and later each day. Today the day-light appeared just after five o’ clock in the morning. It is half-past six now, and the sun has long since risen.
The summer mornings are cool to mild. They are pleasant; the wind is cool and refreshing. Around about this time the traffic starts to pick up n front of our house. Ours is a very busy street. The traffic rushes and roars past the whole day long; both motor vehicles and pedestrians. It is a lot like the song by ‘The Doors’ entitled ‘Cars hiss by window…”
Dogs bark madly throughout the day at things such as delivery men and other dogs, or any thing and anyone that may be deemed worthy of being barked at. At times, like in the afternoons, I close up my dogs in the house so that the barking dogs are at least not in my direct proximity. The noise and the barking dogs in this neighborhood can drive you out of your mind.
I get up early these days, and as such I am now accustomed to enjoying the early summer mornings. I sit and drink coffee, smoke and listen to music on the radio. Sometimes I might write a bit; like this morning. The trees are covered in layers of thick, lush green leaves. We have had a lot of rain this summer. The grass in the back-garden is very long, and I am still to lazy to cut it. It is almost knee-high now. Well, maybe sometime soon…
Soon the summer mornings will turn to winter mornings, but for me it will be much the same routine, except that it will be much colder then. Summer will not tarry much longer, and winter will soon be here…
