AprPAD — Day 25

Happiness Remixed

the leaves lift,
bounce—

wind under a wing.

blackbird singing,
not to be seen,

though its tune
carries.

magpie lands,

finds a meal
in between
blades of grass.

it’s a day
for opening
all the windows.

  1. The best days of Spring, opening the windows when the temps outside won’t kick off the thermostat inside!

    1. It’s 4:30-ish and I still have all the windows and 2 doors to the garden open. A completely glorious spring day. As for thermostats — no worries — I turn the heating completely off mid-April and it comes back on when it’s autumn.

  3. I had mine open for a few this morning- but it is still in the 30’s so it was short lived- crossing my fingers for the 50’s by the end of next week!

  4. Not even close. And it snowed another 6 inches last week but the good news is it already 41 right now and my windows are back opened 😁
