May Surprise

Some birds are chirping, the sky is blue

The air grows warm, but a breeze is due

Bringing a cool that awakens the mind

For this, I will soon be desperate to find

Being outside is a pleasure this day

It welcomes me to venture without delay

For in the course of the blink of an eye

The only cool places will be inside

And while many pleasures are taken indoors

It's not frequently what I am in the mood for

So I sit outside writing in the shade

And thank the Lord for this day He has made

These past few days have astounded me. A coolish air settled in town for a treat in mid-May. I almost thought I was dreaming when I left my apartment yesterday morning. A pleasant dream, where you wouldn't mind staying for awhile. I tried to gather in the nice morning, take a deep breath lacking in humidity, look around at the happier grass and sky, feel the coolness of the air touch my skin. Pleasant indeed.
Enjoy the small pleasant things of your day.
