Finally, spring has arrived with a contagious swing in its step. What’s so good about spring? Here are my top ten answers:
10. When you go out for a walk, people smile and wave as they drive by.
9. As far as the eye can see, it’s green, green, green.
8. The carry out personnel at the local grocery store are so eager to go outside, they line up three deep waiting for customers.
7. Tulips, bleeding heart, and magnolias are blooming with wild abandon…but the asparagus patch is gone!
6. The air smells so good and feels so warm, a person can open windows and blow the winter stink out of the house.
5. Bleeding heart bushes grow an inch or two every couple hours.
4. A soft breeze on the face.
3. Tree frogs singing by the pond.
2. The glimpse of a cardinal in the top of a tree.
1. Sunshine on the shoulders, like John Denver said, makes almost everybody happy.
