Serendipitous Sunshine

Days like today I suspect I'm part plant.  

I could have stood in the sunshine all day long.

Letting it soak into my soul.

My mood automatically lifted, 

My smile wider, 

The promise of spring 

Breathing life back into 

the gray neighborhood.

Windows down

 Sunroof open

Patio is almost snow free

Kitchen windows open

(and in desperate need of washing)

Sunshine and sunglasses

Walking to the grocery store, instead of driving

A few plants trying to believe it is spring as well, 

Already showing their green

Evening walks with friends

Sunsets

Small things, 

Taken for granted 

Not that long ago, 

Now feel 

Serendipitous.
