Something special happened today.

On my drive to school, I saw something I thought had disappeared long ago:
Dry Pavement

I don't think you understand.
It's 24˚ and I'm wearing shorts.
It's a like a heat wave.
And that's 24˚ Fahrenheit, not Celsius.

I haven't seen anything green in four months.
Seeing grass on the side of the road is a simple miracle.
It whispers to the greater things that are yet to come.

As the sun shines through my bedroom window,
I think that maybe, just maybe,
Everything will be alright.
Spring.
