Storm! The weather today was wet and windy. My umbrella was blown inside out - several times. It's better to look at that kind of weather from a window. In Truro I had coffee and soup in my favourite café – and watched the wet people in the street. Outside the bus, as I was going home, the road was very wet. The lights of all the cars were reflected. The bus windscreen was wet and blurry. It needed windscreen wipers.

I am not a fine poetess and my verses are not refined poetry. I would prefer to write songs, but I don't know how to compose the music. I am not a composer. It's hard to get rhymes for some words. Can I remember rhymes? I can't remember exactly. But "amusing" is a rhyme for "exactly" (more or less). "Moth" is another rhyme, but how can I use it? The picture is a peppered moth. Ma whans dhebm a scrifa neppeth didhan

She ought to come with all the flowers of the spring. They are named for the bird. There is a bluebell (cuckoo flower) with blue bells. Cuckoo plants are the same thing. Later, there will be many yellow marigolds. In May, the cuckoo should sing all day. The folksong si

But neither did the language stay unchanged. The people developed different ways of saying the same thing. The first play in the Ordinalia is the Origin of the World, as seen
