Melting

There is one thing I don't like about the season of winter....and that is...

The Melting.

I love it when it snows...but not really when it melts.

Especially if the snow has been on the grass long enough to have the grass turn more yellow then green.
It seems like such a sad time of year when the snow melts and the blossoms have not yet bloomed.
The red of the leaves are gone from the trees leaving bare twigs behind.
That is...for me the most depressing part of winter...where the snow is melting and isn't bright and shiny white anymore..but there aren't any bright and green leafy things to brighten the day. Its all just yellow and brown....
It seems like the changes between the other seasons aren't as noticeable.
When Spring goes into Summer you notice it getting hotter and raining less. When summer changes into fall it gets cooler and the colors start changing.
But when fall changes into winter and winter into spring...I think the change is much more noticeable.
The grass has turned slightly more green from the pre-snow rains we get, then they get blanketed underneath a layer of snow for however long before the heavy layer of whiteness disappears...leaving smooshed grass and last years soggy leaves behind.
I wonder why the season of winter is much more noticeable then the rest.
Everything turns white after all.
Why do we have no other liquidity thing fall from the sky in summer to signal summer?
Fall...yes the leaves change
and Spring has more blossoms...
and Summer has its heat...
yet....snow....it makes winter unique i guess :) lol seeing a world somewhat 'devoid ' of color.
Its peaceful in a way. :) terrifying in others....but more peaceful how the world seems still and at rest. Calm...

Until you next read these words;
I'll be watching the leaves.
Enjoy the day!
