It’s hot outside

18C apparently.
Not out to test it
Still so lovely
To be able to sit
And look out
At Blue skies
And people about
For their walkies
Grim news On TV
Further 596 deaths reported
So sad to see
Families devastated
When will it end
We await the answer
Well it is as it is
It won’t last forever
