you
just have to air out your house
drive
with your windows down
hang
the sheets outside in the breeze
then
the sneezing begins
those
pretty Bradford pears bloom
(and
begin to stink)
the
grass is suddenly a brilliant green
(mowing
isn't far behind)
you
see people wearing shorts with a sweater
or
other unfortunate revealing combinations
because one day it's 80 degrees, the next day there's frost
so
you keep flipping between heat and AC
you
have an uncontrollable urge to:
clean out your
closet
pack away coats,
boots, and dark colors
wear something
cheerfully bright
redecorate,
lighten up and toss clutter
buy tulips for
your kitchen table
clean off the
porch, then just sit for a while
listen to the
birds sweet song
bite the head off
a chocolate Easter bunny
get up and walk
off those winter pounds
let the sun shine
on your face
explore the garden
center
and so on...
Just pick
something and do it. Enjoy Spring!
