Why We Need Each Other

…because sometimes,

in the middle of winter,

when the snow just keeps coming and coming,

one of us begs to put on a bathing suit and,

smelling of last year’s chlorine and sunblock,

reminds the rest of the family that spring is on its way;

that seasons give way to seasons;

and that today is a good one to hope.

    Makes me want to put on my bathing suit too…on second thought…no it doesn’t! To spare myself and others, I will remain hidden under layers of generous warm clothes! Ah to be a child again when you can get away with a cute round belly!
