:: ode to spring ::

{I think winter is finally ending.
I think the earth is beginning to wake up.
oh glorious!}

the warm sun and the chilly breeze, the smell of grass and growing things.
the birds singing outside my window in the morning.
the blue sky.
the sudden rain showers and the little leftover puddles.
the daffodils.
the budding trees.
the feeling that something is just around the corner.

spring.
no more snow.
no more coats and mittens.
no defrosting the car windshield or having to shovel the drive before work in the morning.
(thank heavens.)
no more freezing, gray days.

color.
warmth.
and
     
        the
       
             goat-footed

balloonMan         whistles
far
and
wee
