Can you hear the soft chirping of unthawing birds whispering to their neighbors?
Can you see that ice melting away limbs to allow the full expression of life bloom?
Can you feel the warm air that tickles the bridge of your nose and carries around the rain that dampens your hair?

Can you imagine it?

Can you smell the fresh layers of dirt covering the forest floor Forgotten beneath brown leaves?
Can you strain your neck in angst as your eyes squint to watch the newest love birds scamper within the trees?
Can you see newly formed smiles against colorful clothing?

Can you imagine it?

I can...

I can see beautiful mountain tops grasping for their own reality and holding that remembrance of snow at the top.
I can see the hair floating and fluttering through the winds from animals shedding their winter coats.
I can see millions of black birds dancing in the sky's with the occasional sound of geese that have come back to say hi.
I can smell the fresh cut grass and the smell of lawn mowers.
I can now imagine the feeling of what the suns rays can truly do.
I also won't have to deal with static taking over each and every hairstyle I control.

My teeth will no longer chatter and chomp together I'm shivering tones.
My fingers will no longer fall numb within my pockets.

I can sleep soundly.

I can sleep soundly to the winds blowing at my windows.
I can rest easy to the pitter and the patter of spring rains.

But, one can never forget how dangerous spring is as well.
I'm sure I do not have to explain.
I'm sure I don't have to involve the swirling winds of tornadoes.
How they crash and push against each and every house.

I can see everything.
Clearly.
Can you?
