Drabbles entry for April.
---
Spring. Everywhere around, nature is awakening from its slumber, trees covered in tiny green buds, early flowers beginning to bloom. People look livelier, their spirits lifted by warming weathers, the fresh scent in the air. I feel it too, yet differently. There's sadness lingering just beneath the surface.
She loved the spring. Even the word made her smile. When snow began melting, she always rushed to see me, full of life, demanded we search for budding willows, flowers, anything. It's been long, but I still follow that little ritual.
Spring. Such a poignant word. I'll go search for willowbuds, and should I find any, I'll bring them to her.
