Hello March. I’ve been waiting for you. My soul feels you.
Last summer I longed for a change in season. Summer wasn’t in my heart, but it held on and kept coming back and back and back. I couldn’t escape the summer memories, memories reminding me that sometimes life is just plain hard. Winter was welcomed. The snow soothed my soul. The grey days hugged me.
And now here you are, softening the earth, sunshining the sky, transforming me. Thank you March for knocking on my window and offering a new beginning.

Sunshining = best verb ever! I love the line, “summer wasn’t in my heart.” There is lots of emotion packed into few words in that line.
