the smell of flowers  
so fresh and new; as i look  
your way so pretty.  
   
heart beating faster to think  
you approach me faster still.  
   
lust like birds in may  
your sparkling dress; in the breeze  
and your nice spring eyes.  
   
mating season has arrived  
and a fresh spring breeze off bay.  
   
when skin starts to show  
how come you look; cute in spring  
as pre-summer tan.  
   
that's when the hormones start going  
and the heart starts racing fast.  
   
crushes peak in spring  
as i watch you; with your friends  
i'm not in your league.  
   
when will this loneliness end  
as i walk back home alone.  
   
the skirts coming out  
a time for fear; of bodies  
anxiety peaks.  
   
skirts and sandals start to show  
me feeling inferior.  
   
beautiful people  
strutting their stuff; on display  
my sweater summer.

A little song I wrote about the spring time .... and hormones .... and body image ....

I lifted the title from a phrase in the movie 'Bambi' .... a movie from my childhood. About the spring time. That's it, really.
