My favorite season of the year

is spring

when the blossoms bloom

revealing their vivid colors

when the trees regain their leaves

which sprout in every shade of green

every spring break

i return to the area

of which made me love this season

a tire swing in a field of sunflowers

tied upon a willow tree

the area looks as if

it is straight out of a fairy tail

with the accents of crawling ivy on the white fence posts

the morning is when the garden looks its best

when the grass has drops of dew

when the smell of foliage is at its climax

the colors are more saturated

at this time of day

the sky is just fading from black

to the azure tone it is at noon

i sit on the swing

and listen to the birds sing there songs and melodies

the chirps that i forever adore

i finger the petals of the flowers

they are soft and smooth

i make my way to the pond

where the lily pads and their flowers flourish

the croaking of frogs intensify

i make my way closer to it

and allow my hand to touch the water

it ripples

i can see my face clearly

until the ripples distort my reflection

but every season must come to end

and i shall wait for this one to return

I will wait for the flowers,the trees, the morning dew, the pond and the tire swing

i will wait til spring returns.
