Weathering

My dear,

Often these days
My thoughts are spreading out to you
With too many questions hovering upon me..
Is the heat too intense where you dwell?
Are you navigating it with ease?
What’s the moisture like in your realm?
What’s the humidity level there?
I sense the weariness in your words;
It seems like a struggle for you;
Are you truly alright?

Here, we’re also dealing with scorching heatwaves –
Yet, amidst the swelter, my mind wanders to you
How do you cope up in this relentless weather?
Often these days
It crosses my mind …

Do you think of me too,
Sometimes?

Do you remember my disdain for humidity,
And how it worsens my headaches ….
Do you remember my aversion to doctors,
Yet now they’re an inevitable part of life?

My heart, already broken by your absence,
Feels the toll of days passing …
I find myself overthinking,
Lost in thoughts of you,
Especially in these days,
Days of relentless heat,
Days of suffocating humidity ….

Though
You may never grasp …
There’s an essence about you that I can’t shake
Even amidst these sweltering heatwaves …
A grip on me akin to
The greatest tale left untold …

So,

Could you narrate an episode or two from your journey?
Could you paint a tale of your eccentric existence?
Could you recount an experience
For me?
To me?
In these sweltering heat
Amidst the scorching waves there? …

Meanwhile
Take care, my dear,
Know that I pray for you …
In every moment
In every humid day and night
Of these days ….

Yours truly
^^

I do drink lots of water in these scorching conditions. I do keep my body cool. Though I hate to use sunscreen, just I avoid sunburn. I do like coconut water a lot. And Nimbu Pani too ☺️. Then I love ice cream too 🤷🏿‍♀️

Do you?

    1. Yes.
      Life is great with its uncertainties for those who are patient and have faith ♥️

      And

      Separation is sweet to the lovely hearts.
      Separation turns into hell to the ugly hearts!

      Poetic all the time, 😇
      Ha ha

  3. precious piece! — For cooling the skin, i recommend portable jugs of water misters that include a fan. Also, wear only garments made of 100% cotton. and hats that have mesh openings for the head to refresh with air. Then too its best to schedule everything early or late. — p.s. Humidity is my friend, it allows my allergies better days; maybe cuz the moisture makes the pollen drop to the ground. — wishing you good health, Rocksy.

    1. Thank you Steph!
      Your recommendation is very appreciated-
      In addition I do not forget my umbrella in such heatwaves if I need it.

      And you’re right; the best is to schedule everything early or late! But it’s not always possible, you know …

      And hey, I sure do love my name a lot … Roksana or Amelia for friends to call me!

      Rocksy sounds a bit awkward to me to handle! Hope you understand ….

      I wish you good health as well …
      Take care dear!

      2. Thank you my dear …

        I wish I could tell you that. But some adorable friends do call me Roksy even though I ask them not to. They just love me so very much to listen to me Ha ha ha and I keep telling them also, and they keep ignoring me Ha ha, I know it’s funny. But at the end I understand that they just love me too much Ha ha …

        Well sweetie, I think I may call you Stephie …
