I look outside my apartment
\nand see the leaves on the trees
\nlike never before<\/p>\n
and I marvel at how green the
\nreborn leaves have become
\nthis month of April.<\/p>\n
Before I was retired, I never
\nnoticed these wonders of
\nnature. I was so consumed
\nwith my job, I paid no
\nattention to them.<\/p>\n
Now I see them as though
\nmy senses have become
\nalive beyond belief, <\/p>\n
as though I have new eyes
\nthat have opened to nature\u2019s
\nseasonal splendors with
\ngreater clarity and sight.<\/p>\n
And I see the beautiful blue of the sky
\nand the greening of the lush grass
\nthat surrounds my apartment.<\/p>\n
Now I appreciate the greening
\nof April like never before.<\/p>\n
