DEAR MOTHER NATURE (150 words)
By Amy Leskowski


Dear Mother,
I arrived! Directions were a breeze—but there were delays. Plus, I caught a cold. Enjoying the North will have to wait. I’m covered in blankets and have terrible chills.
Love,
Spring

Ma,
Still under the weather.
Made your four-season soup.
More soon,
Spring

Mom,
Thanks for your warm thoughts. My temperature improved. I had a few good days. I may be springing back to normal!
Always,
Spring

Mommy,
False alarm. My fever is mild, but my head feels hazy. Can’t catch a break.
Wish you were here,
Spring

Hi Mom,
It’s like you predicted! I’m finally better—well, to some degree. I sense blue skies ahead.
Warmly,
Spring

Mother!
Not fair. Just when I felt good as new, Summer arrived.
See you soon,
—S

Hey,
Summer caught my bug. I lent her my teapot and humidifier. Guess I’ll plant myself here a bit longer.
Stay cool,
Spring
