Oh! Thatīs annoying!
The fridge

That keeps my dishes.
When power fails
I am ditched!

Can relate: Those homes which survived nearest our latest fire returned home with all their food spoiled to the tune of hundreds of dollars due to the power in their area being interrupted. We left our electricity on for the few days we evacuated and were fine... except for my sister-in-law who lost some food because she voluntarily turned off her power. The local food lockers have stepped up to help the disadvantaged.
Overall I need to give my home state credit... they blustered and harangued each and every citizen and business to pinch each and every femto-watt during our hot summer months and held their own. The only outages (many) were due to equipment failure and/or downed limbs and repairs by our energy provider

You had double luck. I donīt know if it isnīt dangerous to keep power on in this circunstances. Hopefully there will be enough electricity in winter.
No white winter days
Scorching summer
Approaches inevitably.

Demand in Winter is less I believe because the strain of using air conditioning is less.

Enjoyed, specially the "white bite".
Spring 2022
Glorious sunny mornings
hushed grey afternoons
All embracing contrasts

Early autum
Autumn is still longing
for summer temperatures.
Sun rays are friendlier though

First 3 of 6 lines of my latest poem:
in the misty rain
in the misty rain
all is green and flower
periwinkles' bright faces glisten...

Enjoyed!
Curious. It seems that the periwinkles donīt have a popular name in Brazil, though they are abundant.
Midday
Scalding sidewalks
High heels, tennis shoes, varnished shoes...
Busy feet rushing on!
