Dear Weather part II


Dear Weather, 
Thank you. 76 degrees by 10:30 this morning seems like heaven right now. Trees are leafing out, providing real shade again. I am going to sit outside until I am brown again--my legs have been too long in jeans. Girls ride by on cruiser bikes, skirts fluttering. Everyone is in flip flops. Shade feels good now. The breeze feels good. Classes are over, and for today we can pretend that means work is done, too. In two weeks I'll be home. I am rebuilding melanin in preparation. If I were a horse, I would eat the dandelions blooming. Thank you.
