A Note to Spring
Dear Spring, I apologize for the welcome you received on the day of your big debut! The calendar had your name written all over March 20th, and instead, an imposter dressed in the form of snow & slush came around and stole the show! Please don't be offended and take your business elsewhere! I was not terribly enamored with your replacement, or with the pile of wet snow suits and mittens left in my children's wake. Winter has been a hard-nosed master this year and he may try to frighten you off, but have no fear... the calendar is all yours now for three glorious months, and if I were you, I would take full advantage of that fact! The robins are here, the daffodils are sprouting, and I took a peek at my flip flops today, just to be sure I knew where they were. All we need, now, is you! Your warmth will be the breath of kindness we've all been...
