It is just getting light now, light that is dim and soft, soft as an object throwing a shadow will cause the shadow to be a faded failing of light rather than a graph of the object. The yellow paint on the house opposite is darkened, subdued, the contrast between it and the white surrounding the windows now minimal, the white not glaring.
And it is pouring rain, a rattle on the tiles up on the roof beside the skylight in the kitchen, outside the window.A peaceful rush pattering. During a storm, that would be a rushing and roaring, but this is not a storm.
It is rain in the early morning,
It is not cold.
And the clock on the wall between the two doors ticks on, the clicking of a magetic clock, the one battery lasting years and years. A clock powered by a chemical reaction and restrained to by gravity, the pendulums swing and the tiny impulse from the magnet, taking a minute charge from the battery.
And it will go on for years, evidence of gravity, and of electrons desperately jumping from atom to atom in a rush to reach equilibrium, a situation of no movement. And in their movement they stop the pendulum from reaching it's equilibrium early.
But eventually, all will cease.
As the rain has done, just intermittent drips from the roof now.
A police horn sounds, an early call of duty for those who call for order.
Driven by a mishap, or an evil deed, or a call for help.
The light outside is brighter now, the grey mass in the sky is thinning.
As nuvens.
Claro
A few more words to be learnt today
And those verbs - complex cases expressing times past conditional perfect future possibly
complex
but even a few words will help an errant tourist some years from now.
