You Fill Up My Senses . . . . . .

I was sitting here thinking about all the kitschy sentimental things I could say about spring, and a lot comes to mind. Oh the birth of new life, the rejuvenate of old dead things, you know the typical. But what I really want is to say something original that hasn't been said about this refreshing time of year. Unfortunately I don't see much original, so I will just stick with the Usual.

I love walking across campus and smelling the daisy's or the Blossoms on whatever kind of tree that is in the photograph. Being able to breath DEEPLY, and feel all the Rushing of air that is soo cleansing and refreshing, without all the Freezing cold holding its Tight grip on my throat.

strangely, I love the smell of Exhaust from cars in the spring, as the weather warms up, and you can have your windows down there is a stronger, more pangent smell that tells me that summer is on its way, and will soon make me not so cold.

More than all of that, I love the rain, love to watch the rain, walk in it, and bask in that totally enveloping smell that drives me crazy with excitement. I have never felt more clean and more refreshed than after a powerful soaking rain, that leaves me chilled but happy as a puppy in a mud puddle.

in a world that is full of synthetic, generic reality, to be able to walk out into something that is new and fresh and completely natural, I just want to sing John Denver "You fill up my senses. . . . Like mountains in spring time, Like a walk in the Rain" John Denver always was a Musician after my own heart, and I cant think of a better line than that to hold My feelings on the season.
