Sunshine

Tired.
So tired of snow.
So tired of scraping my windshield.
So tired of taking it easy on curves.
So tired.

God played a trick on me this morning.
Sunshine came dancing through my window
and landed on me, all snuggled up in my blankets.

I closed my eyes and traveled
not in space
but in time.
Summertime.

A lovely day.
I can get up
and walk through the grass
go swimming with my son
cook out on the grill
and the only ice
will be in my glass of lemonaide.

Some day soon.
