Spring Makes My Body Feel New Again

Spring At Gatorland
"Makes My Body Feel New"

Spring is one of my favorite times of the year.  This year, it seems like everything is early, but I welcome it with open arms.  Springs makes my body feel new again and it refreshes my mind.  It gives new life to the world that appeared dead for several months.

The colors change from dreary shades of green and brown to vibrant colors.  The air begins to feel warm as a noticeable breeze touches my body.  The birds begin to chirp more loudly as the trees once again begin to bloom.

You can notice spring in the ground where the grass decides to begin growing again, now that the temperature has warmed a bit.  It is a time when the garden vegetables go in and begin to grow towards maturity.


The landscape of the trees and shrubbery changes so that where you could once see for a distance, you are now enveloped in a field of peaceful beauty.  It changes the perception of what you can see and where you are in relation to the world around you.

The animals begin to come out more and wake up to the new spring days.  New life begins to emerge.

This time of year is just one of my favorites because it has always shown me that there is hope and possibility.  No matter how rough the winter was, the dead turns to life and the dreary turns to vibrant colors.  Most of all, spring makes my body feel new again.
