47. Winter Made a Comeback

Ah, the sly old winter, always sneaking in a last-minute encore just as we pack away the heavy coats. It’s like that one guest at the party who just doesn’t catch the yawning hints that it’s time to leave. We say our goodbyes, turn to embrace the budding embrace of spring, and—bam—winter is back, splattering frosty confetti everywhere.

“Surprise! You thought you were done with me?” it seems to laugh, as we begrudgingly search for our once-stowed-away gloves. As much as we grumble and wish for warmer days, there’s a part of us that can’t help but admire winter’s tenacity. It’s like it knows we’ll miss those cozy nights in, just a little.
