A Perfect Memory
I find that the difference between
seasons has always left me astounded, I can never have too much of one season
it bores me.
Therefore, towards the end of the
long and warm summer days where the sun doesn’t set until nine, and
conversations about far-fetched dreams all seem possible; I am day dreaming
about falling into a pile of crisp autumn leaves. Being able to wear those wool
en
scarves that if you take them off and bundle them up you can also use as
pillows and sleep anywhere and when you don’t have to be scared of little bees
swapping around you because they go to sleep as the sun sets on autumns eve.
However as soon as all the leaves
around town are that beautiful rusty red color I’m imagining the days spent in
front of the fire place drinking hot chocolate, and watching harry potter
marathons while looking outside to a forever winter wonderland. And not too
soon past that do I start to vent about my love for spring flowers and all that
is beautiful in this world coming to life during that season.
Like I said… I love the difference
in seasons. However, this past month the winter we’ve had is a little late to
the game, what with the cloudy Christmas we had and what looks like a white
spring we are going to have.
One thing that I have always
regretted after the winter comes and goes is my lack of time spent playing in
the snow. I never either have company to encourage me to go out or the time
when it snows. Last night however, I busted my ass trying to get up to your
hill, and we spent one of what I can easily call my favorite nights. Having
snow ball fights, tackling one another into the snow, sledding and then
swimming could not have been a more perfect combination to my already long day
then we had to add the moment in which you asked me to lay down in the snow
with you and stare up at the snow. How terrifying it seemed, you said, the
white canvas with white flakes dropping down at us. You asked me to open my
mouth and try and catch it all, and that’s what I did. In those few moments as
we laid there, beaming like children, and eating up all the little flakes, I thought
about how nothing has ever made me as happy in this lifetime as that moment
right there. So pure, so real and so genuine. I thought back to how you always
said snow makes you the happiest version of yourself and I finally not only got
to see it in its fullest effect I also understood what you meant because you
being around me, you conversing with me, you make me the happiest version of
myself. So I looked over to my right as I saw you laying there mouth open and
eyes wide open staring at the snow, I pulled myself closer to you and kissed
you in the snow. Because you’re everything, and that memory will forever be imbedded
into my brain because it was everything,
