sunburned shoulders on Saturday
snow on Monday
drawers bursting at the seems
as they work to contain summer & winter clothing
pasty white legs sticking out the end of bermudas
freckles popping out to greet spring's rays
box elder bugs frame the view out my kitchen window
arachnophobia manifests itself once again
beach balls and swim goggles in the seasonal section
ice melt in the clearance bins
muddy puppy paws
mittens that refuse to be packed away
toes hang over
last year's flip flops
the new grill sits impatiently
beneath winter's last attempt

Ah...don't you love spring. It just makes everyone so happy to know that winter will be ending.
Absolutely. I'm with you on every wonderfully-turned phrase. My turtlenecks didn't even make it off the livingroom chair to the basement before I had to reclaim a couple!
Incredibly written.

You loved creative writing class didn't you?
Totally. I have been thinking about switching out all our winter stuff too. Our drawers are flowing over with multi-season clothes. Come, spring, come!
