I have recently begun walking home from my evening extracurriculars and in doing this through the winter and then into the spring have discovered the absolute joy of seeing the light come back. I sort of started writing this poem in my head as I was walking home on a Thursday evening at the beginning of March. It was the first time I had walked home from that extracurricular while it was still light and it felt so amazing. I had always been kind of negative and cynical about spring and made fun of my parents for being so excited about it, but this year has definitely changed my mind. And inspired me to write a poem.
