Meteorological Assist

Where I live we have an ally in quarantine, a meteorological assist. Most every day, it rains. And what regulations might not accomplish, weather does.

Yesterday, for instance, we had about six hours of full-on spring sun. Balmy blue skies, no clouds or gloom — and there were lots more people and cars on the road, a sense of everyone bursting from confines.

This morning, though, I awoke to the pitter-patter of rain on the roof. We're expected to have a deluge by noon. The greenery will become even greener.

It will be easy to be inside today. Which is one day closer to being out.
