Spring



As we leap from the cold, calm air . Weather permitting SprIngtIme Is here  Windows ajar. air flows and spIns Washing walls and fresh linen. Thirty degrees. to sixty d*mn near. Potholes to fix. concrete repair. Darkness to light. ice to rain. Hide and go seek. An ankle sprain. Hats and gloves. in boxes they go. Tank tops and shorts. and grass to mow. Seeds to be planted . Leaves are dead . Winter behind . Summer ahead.
