seasons

once, before i knew better, i would look forward to spring....warm days, flowers sprouting, beautiful sunshine, and a certain laziness in the air.  i finally figured out most of that describes fall.   spring is bright light squeezing through bitter clouds, shivering in your spring wardrobe under layers of sweaters pretending you are not cold.  it is always chilling rain during sports meets.  

autumn is the golden time with dust motes floating through lemonade air.  well, it is supposed to be like that.   this year in western South Dakota it is biting winds with the hint of winter snows.  but the grass in the back yard likes it.  but i think the green looks a little sharp, not the laying down and playing in the grass kind of grass.  time for people to drag out mittens, scarves, and snow boots.
