Seasons in the Sun: Spring

Posted on the 06 September 2013 by Felicakes @felicakes

It certainly feels like the first day of Spring today.  Spring is one of my favorite season. It's a time where the nights are still cold but the days are relatively warm.  The days are getting longer. Growth starts sprouting.  Everyone seems to be more energetic.

There is a crisp in the air outside as I took a walk around the surrounding suburbs where I work.  From a distance I can hear birds chirping. I can hear men with machines working on homes under renovation. I can year a guy and his dog running down the street.  I can hear a mom encouraging her son to run after the ball.  I hear a trade man's radio playing a rock song while he eats his lunch in his ute (truck to the rest of the world).

As I sit on the bench at a park, I look beyond, I see school kids running around with their hat on playing gleefully. I see a young bloke, learning how to parallel park, a skill which I still lack. I see an elderly lady tending to her garden while her dog sits lazily in the sun.  Soaking it all in. 

It's amazing what a glorious Spring day will do.  Everyone is out. Everyone is about.  Everyone is happy. All this, and it's not even 3pm yet. 

What do you like about Spring?
