Observations

As I sat outside on the front steps of my porch with a paper in one hand and a pencil in the other I noticed many different aspects of nature that I have never payed attention to ever before. The early morning breeze hit my face along with the powerful rays of the sun, as several birds soared across the bright blue sky and others chirped to each other in the tall fir trees. You could hear the cars zooming passed on the main street with a long honk every once in a while. For the most part, however, it was a placid setting partly because of the soothing waterfall in the front yard and the delightful smell of the flowers. Slowly the suns glare became overpowering, and so I moved under the shade of my lemon tree and sat on the unusually comfortable grass enjoying every second of the greenery around me, wishing that it was spring, and all the flowers were in full bloom, so I may be overwhelmed by the powerful aroma of the roses and tulips lined against the border of our front yard. Eventually, the temperature began to rise and it began to feel like a hot summer day bringing back memories of our great vacation. Reminiscing on the days of our last summer I ran to the pool hoping for it to be warm enough to swim, however, it was just as cold as it was in the rainy weather.
