spring is springing!



wait for a morning when the sky is so blue that it cuts through clouds and stings your ever-tired eyes. hopefully it's a sunday, because then you can wake up slow, listening to windchimes close outside your window and the wide churchbells spreading solemn across the city. pull on your favourite hat and walk to the corner of vernon and watt street. wait till there is no one trespassing on the sidewalk, then walk carefully toward the crossing lights at jubilee. admire soft tree branches and humming wires, mudsnow sculpures melting beside empty driveways. admire the sidewalk, it is a pale rough ribbon leading perfectly to the fire-engine door where your pathway ends. wonder who lives there and whether they stand alone and quiet in early mornings, waiting for the coffee to brew itself. maybe they watch the forever sidewalk, wondering where it leads and whether they should follow.

i will be back so soon!
