As the golden dandelions begin to bloom, droplets that failed to become snow are dripping.
They looked a bit like a crying face, so I offered my umbrella without even thinking.
Right? Left? Which is the right way? The road ends before we can even decide.
But when someone special comes to mind, we’ll choose the path that saves them from pain.
With a small bit of courage, we proceed forward.
When the path gets jagged, we head diagonally.
Once we’ve made progress, it’ll become new light!
With the calling of songbirds, like their close embrace,
The tick-tock of the season’s clock can be heard.
Spring comes again and we drip our paints upon a new page.
We became friends. We ate delicious things. We even argued, just a little bit.
Holding our respective days close to our hearts, we’ve watched light stream through the trees again and again.
We head toward a future we believe won’t be a mistake.
As our one-way tickets flutter in the tailwinds pushing us onward, today is a gold star day!
We get caught up out of nowhere and worry too much. We think we’re happy, but something doesn’t seem right.
We feel like we’re back at zero again. It’s quite the maze!
But the most random thing can make us smile in an instant.
Just like that, just like that, I’m sure we can keep ourselves going!
Changing our hair style, we press the shutter.
Leaping over a puddle, we press the shutter.
A splash glides through the air and we feel somehow moved.
We’ll wish for each and every blink to become a photograph!
As we make our brushes dance, we begin to wish we could stop time.
But the smiles overflow, becoming a never-before-seen color. They can’t be contained by our field of view.
We’re not doing all this for whomever will read the finished pages. That’s not quite it, right?
There’s an answer we can only understand in this moment!
If we’re still saying “I don’t know”, let’s at least say “Who cares?” as we stick out our tongues!
Even if the fate in which our dreams come true is a lie,
Let’s mix in some different colors, making yet another future!
By the time God gets fed up, we’ll already feel a warm wind coming on.
Spring comes again and we… I’m so sorry, we’ll end up being selfish.
We’ll wish to keep the new, in equal measure to the things we’ve treasured all along.
Spring comes again and we drip our paints upon a new page.
We became friends. We ate delicious things. We even argued, just a little bit.
Holding our respective days close to our hearts, we’ve watched light stream through the trees again and again.
We head toward a future we believe won’t be a mistake.
Our one-way tickets flutter
From the tailwinds pushing us onward. I’ve chosen this answer with my own two feet, so watch me as I go!
