The Sun is shining
The Sky is Blue
It's a little cloudy too
Birds are singing joyful song
Their babies won't be babies long
Finch, Sparrow, Blackbird, Wren
When will the Robin return again
Jackdaw, Crow, Rook and Raven
Our garden for them is a safe haven
So as I sit outside and post
I think the thing that I like most
Is Steak Pie and Chips

I make them up as I go along
Sometimes I make them into song
Some are good
Some are bad
Always happy
Never sad

No
That was the final line intentionally
As it was so out of context with the poem
I thought it was really clever just to leave it there with the reader wanting Steak Pie and Chips

Well Yvonne has hit a bump in the road
Over the last 72 hours her condition has worsened a bit
So I started her on her emergency pack of steroids and antibiotics
She has improved slightly
But not enough for me to be able to be able to predict when the next frio will be
She hadn't had a flare up since Feb 2023 so it was sort of overdue.
She did come out to the garden today with me and I did some light activities with her.
Her new portable nebuliser arrived today, and after themfirst time she used it it was noticeable that her posture was a lot better.
It's her birthday next Tuesday so it's my plan to have her fully recovered by then so we can maybe get away later that week

Mind you, I have said that ever year since we met in 97

@Ineeddentures I love the temperature in the low to mid 20's best of all.
But those days are rare.

As I do not really embrace the heat I think our 18C and sun would be nicer than the day you have had

Is that your place Jim? Looks lovely. And moreover, the shining sun adds to the beauty.
By the way, who has written those lines. They are catchy with good rhyme scheme.

I am happy today too. The sun is shining and I have forgotten to take the cane with me several times. My butt is hurting a lot less

Very glad to hear that you are happy today as well Marga.
And also that the sun is shining for you.
Do you miss the cane when you do not have it with you?

It does indeed still say not
And if you prick it with a fork
The oil comes spurting out all over the place
Don't let it burn your face
