spring fever

that itch to move and breathe in deeply has increased tremendously in the past few days.

the earth is bursting with dampness and budding grass seed.

i can feel it pulsating when i breathe in that deep green air.

tonight i'm going to make my legs burn

and my lungs gasp.

i'm going to make sure that i know i'm alive.

if only i had a more vibrant vocabulary.
