A Winter Daydream

Mild 
breezes
of springtime
fragrant flowers
songbirds’ lilting trills
increasing verdant green
lengthy, pleasant morning walks
in comfy light-weight shorts and tees
writing and reading in the porch swing--
How I long for these on cold winter days!

Wonderful Etheree and congrats on your placement in the contest. I, too, am longing for the warm weather to get here. The older we get the longer winter seems to last.

excellent description of what we wait for every year at this time! Our winter has been pretty mild though, so not such a big deal here in Utah

Thanks so much, Andrea! Here in north Mississippi, it was 10 degrees this morning, windchill around zero. We're 30-40 degrees below average. I'm hibernating. :-) Janice
