Winter Days

Winter is not my favorite season.  There are parts of winter I thoroughly enjoy.  Watching snowflakes whirl around the city streets... Snuggling up with my honey on a cold night with a warm blanket and the chick flick he picked out for me...  the crunch of the snow beneath my feet on the short walk from my car to the door... Ice dripping from barren branches the way icing drips off a warm cake.  But I digress.

Winter is not my favorite season.  Today, we caught a glimpse of what comes next.  The thermostat reached almost 70 degrees.  The ice and snow only pepper the lawns now.  There is a fresh scent in the air.  The golden sunshine feels warm on my face.  Could it be?  Dare I hope?  Is it Spring I feel lurking just around the corner?  My hopes are dashed as Brian shares the weather report.  Sixty mile per hour winds expected tonight and tomorrow... temperatures dipping into the thirties again.  

Winter is not my favorite season.  However, the seasons come and go giving us something to always look forward to.  It can't be long now..........
