There is a spring in my step – but not yet. It is a hope I nurtured for this time of the year.
March marks the onset of summer here – the time of putting away winter clothes, making changes in the house to meet oncoming sultriness, planning lighter menus for dinner. But this year is different. The clouds refuse to go away. Occasional rainfall chills hopes of warmth.
In the tropical climes that we live in, the pleasantness of medium temperatures is welcome. Uncertainty plagues minds, not disappointment. What happened to all the blah-blah about global warming? Where are we headed?

It’s interesting how you change your house, etc. with the seasons.
Climate changes definitely disrupt our lives in ways large and small.
Thank you for participating with your haibun!

I think that weather has been changing it’s ways is what it’s all about… the average temperature going up might me more rain or drought.. it’s the pattern that changes.

We like to anticipate and plan, and it disrupts the process. Thanks, Bjorn!

I like the perspective of making “changes in the house to meet oncoming sultriness”. I can see how a diet would change because of that.

Yes. Curtains, covers and sheets all need to change. Summers are also dusty out here, so rugs and carpets are removed.

That’s a fascinating insight into your part of the world. Climate change is very real. Over here in southern Australia I’m noticing that the seasons seem to happening later. Although it’s supposed to be autumn we are getting excessively hot weather.

Guess we are responsible to some extent, for disturbing the balance.

Definitely. I am totally convinced climate change is caused by burning fossil fuels. The science is there.
