A summer's day

There isn't much that compares to the day you can first feel summer's breath. Legs, pale from hiding all winter, begin to peek at you from under skirts and shorts. Smiles are contagious, eager to spread their own bit of sunlight throughout the world. Laughter rings out from everywhere, even the birds joining, again, in the song. Rather than being met by cold eyes and a stiff wave, joyful squeals and warm embraces are there to greet you. Love is in the air- in the oxygen inhaled during every breath. There is no escaping the twitterpation- no, it will catch up to each and every one of you.  Summer is nipping at the heels of winter, and it can't come fast enough.
