The
beds are dry
Not
all the river beds
not
all the way
some
have puddles
It's
hard to believe that
they
were near overflowing
just
four months ago.
The
haze comes and goes
Lately
. . . it lingers
hard
to breathe
It's
hot. I think the
smoke
is holding in the heat
I'm
currently washing clothes
It
is hot enough to hang them on the line
But
won't the smoke defeat my purpose of
having
washed them in the first place.
At
least I have a choice to
shut
my door and keep the elements
outside. How horrible for those who
have
to deal with Hurricane Harvey
and
the mess left behind
They
can't close the door and leave
it
outside - the water and damage
are
still in their houses.
Many
possessions and loved ones gone.
Should
we have to evacuate, it
will
be due to smoke inhalation. I
don't
think the fires will come.
Why
can't the elements even out so
there
are no floods, no fires,
no
damaging winds
