Scenes From the Front Porch

The gentle rains of spring smell sweet from a cozy adirondack chair on an antiquated front porch. Yellow jonquils beckon for the warm sun and greet the neighbors with shiny smiles. Frosted glasses of lemonade elude to the breezy days of summer. As the warm days approach, baskets appear with blooming impatiens and children romp through the yards in playful games. As the sun sets earlier each day, the cool days of fall appear with pots of brazen mums and the trees golden leaves drift to the ground. The children return to tumble in the lawns, landing in heaps of fallen leaves. When the leaves begin to disappear, a swept lawn waits for the big chill and layers of fresh fluffy snow. Sleds glide past with passengers of young and old. Signs of the holidays sprinkle and shine upon the eaves of the antiquated front porch...and the neighbors reminisce of the days past...enjoying the close-knit family of friends!
