windows

one of my favorite times of the year is right now- spring.  everything is waking from a long winter sleep. you know the smell of things, don't you? i long for the day that i can open my windows and smell spring.  at first, it's just for a few hours because the rain may come and then it's for half the day because it's a little too chilly first thing in the morning and then, yes- the temperature is so perfect that the windows can stay open all night. and it's that perfect temperature when you're under the covers and the windows are open with a just-barely-chilly breeze coming in and you can can listen to the birds and smell spring. that was this morning. spring. right here in my little place. right in the middle of the city.
