Bad weather stops fairA Poem by COLLYMORESelf-explanatoryBy
Stanley Collymore A definitely cold and blustery July day with the wind uproariously blowing at knots, and so uninviting is it all that quite literally every living thing: large or small and capable of independent movement, is doing its level best, and why not, to physically counteract this continuous, boisterous and wind-wrought aggressively driven sustained assault. Not so, however, the numerous and miscellaneous vaulting seabirds hereabouts in Worthing, who individually as well as collectively skilfully engage in their inimitably choreographed ballet de dance of theirs, as they rather adeptly and clearly pleasurably ride the dominant air currents of this precipitous and quite furiously developing, summer storm. The summer fair, as is normally the custom at this time of year, is currently in town " has been in location for in excess of a week now and, as is generally scheduled, will continue for another ten days or so. But with the knowledgeable, accurate and forewarned Met Office forecast prediction of very severe inclement weather striking this West Sussex and popular English south coast, seaside holiday town, everything in relation to this spectacular and widely alluring funfair has, for this one day, been anticipatory and temporarily closed down. ©

Comments: Inclement weather,
particularly in the summer, can be an annoying pain in the posterior; an
exasperation that most people will assuredly tell you they can well do without.
But then, that’s human
nature and, of course, we all of us quite honestly would much prefer there were
no hitches in our holiday schedule and that everything started and ended quite
swimmingly. And who logically wouldn’t want to agree with that clearly
self-interested but overall, obviously sensible philosophy? © 2019 COLLYMORE |
