One Moment Before Spring

One second before spring finally comes, a moment happens when all the world lifts head and is filled wondeful new beginning. Only one brief moment, it'a breath of free, fresh air.

One second before spring finally comes, a thought passes over every person. Maybe this year will be the special one. It will carry the promise that we used to believe in when we were little, laughing kids high on swings in the air.

One second before spring finally comes, every flower seems to shimmer with a glow seems from a spectacular light above, and the flowers look like they stand taller and more beautiful than any flower in history might ever have.

Then a moment later, spring breaks out in full-blown, undeniable, living color love.

What a great thought and photo for this precise moment when the sun is rising over the Chicago skyline after days of late cold and snow. It definitely is living color love.

As for me, one of my recurring thoughts one second before spring finally comes is, "Maybe this year I won't have hay fever." LOL!

Hi Dawn!
That's so how I was thinking -- sunrise thoughts for the whole year in the middle of the night when I wrote this. It was a stunning feeling.

Hay fever, I know. :)

It's wonderful knowing that IT WILL BE WARM AGAIN. . . . I feel like dancing a waltz with a big band playing.
