Spring has arrived

The orange sunrays break through my zebra blinds

way too early to be ready to be awoken

and then the cats outside are arguing

over which bird they will try to catch first

as they are sitting and chirping high on the tree branch.

I roll up the blinds and see an actual grass being green,

lemons turning juicy and jasmines blooming white,

trees growing some luxurious looking leaves,

kids playing outside in the playground,

and fresh wind letting in some cooling air.

I open the weather app

and see snow and cold around the world

while the sun is warmly hitting my back

and it makes it hard for me

not to be jealous of those living more up north.

But then I scroll to another month,

where it gets dry and scorching hot

and all the flowers and grass will be dead

so I close my eyes and enjoy the spring

before it is all gone.
