Springtime Think Spring Is My Favorite Season

SPRINGTIME think spring is my favorite season because the cold and gray of winter is ending, and everything turns green and new. I love how the buds on the trees pop out, and the springtime bulbs show their faces to the sun. The colorful daffodils and tulips remind me of sunny days and happy times - spring leads into summer, and summertime is the time for fun and friends. The colors of spring are so fresh and clean, they look brand new, and they are.

They haven't had time to get dirty from the grime and grit of the city, they are clean, just like I wish my house was....no spring cleaning for me, I'd rather enjoy the buds and blooms! A wonder who invented spring-cleaning, anyway? Spring is certainly a time of new beginnings, but who wants to clean when the weather is finally nice, and warm enough to enjoy? That's certainly the last thing I want to do. Washing windows and cleaning up cobwebs is a valiant pursuit, but not today.

No thank you. This time of year I feel cooped up and ready to explode, and that's just what I do, explode outdoors when the weather warms up. Taking a walk is much more refreshing than cleaning the refrigerator, and healthier too. When I walk, I like to walk in the park, on the fresh new grass poking its way toward the sun. Bright green and ready for a new day, its soft and silky on my bare feet, and it makes me feel new and fresh, too.

I love the aroma of new spring grass, especially right after the lawnmower hits it for the first time. It smells incredibly clean and fresh, and represents everything spring is to me. Take a deep breath and smell spring, right.
