To Sunshine


Hello to lovely sunshine streaming in, warming the room and heralding the nearness of spring.

To birds singing happily in the morning.

To tiny buds swelling on the tips of tree branches.

To sky in brighter blue.

To days stretching out a little bit longer.

To sounds of melting snow (hopeful and cheery) and falling icicles (startling at best, mildly terrifying at worst).

To windows cracked open for a hint of fresh air.

To softer-sounding breeze instead of winter's branch-rattling winds.

To bulb flowers poking green leaves up from the dirt.

To walks outside without feeling frozen.

Hello, happy, sunny days.  It's so good to have you back again.
