Temperature Rising

At any moment spring might arrive Be prepared with a light jacket in hand Can you feel the cold wind running away? Dance with me as the meadows turn green Enjoy the sounds of streams as they thaw Feel the warmth of the sun on your face Great days are about to begin Happiness returns with the singing of the birds. I love how the coming of spring makes me feel Jumping up out of bed anxious to greet a new day Kissing your eyelids to wake you up Let's go for a walk Maybe we will even see a glimpse of summer today! Now is the very best time to greet the day On days like this People seem so much happier Quietly taking in the moment Rising just that little bit earlier So that they can enjoy nature coming back to life Trading winter clothing for optimistic shorts Underestimating winter's resilience Variable temperature seem the order of the day Wise people keep warm clothing close at hand X X X OOO, I see there is a better way to keep warm! Yes this is the time of year for lovers Zero degrees and the temperature is rising! For Shadow's Abecedarian contest. February 13, 2015.
