That Country Feeling

As I stated in Spring is Here!, the weather here has been absolutely beautiful.  The crickets are chirping. The birds are flitting about and singing to one another. The students are roaming around campus and enjoying the weather. The breeze is sprinkling flower petals from the cherry blossoms across the grounds. Everything is more light-hearted and cheery.

I was driving back from the city this afternoon after dropping Daniel off with the windows rolled down.  The warm breeze caressed my cheeks and played with the baby hairs that refuse to stay in my ponytail.  The air seeped into my lungs, filling me with a sense of peace. The sound of cars pushing through the hot air played in the background like a subtle lullaby. Completely content from the atmosphere around me, I turned on the radio, looking for a station that fit my mood.
