joie de vivre

everything seems kinder, warmer, a little more inviting

asking you to stay awhile

instead of hurrying back inside.

A breeze spins leaves as if to remind onlookers winter is still here

but she is softer now

ready to cooperate, allowing some rays for a turn

while trees dip in and out of sunlight and shadows.

Content, we watch for dusty haze settle behind the mountains
