Springtime Gone by HPFangirl71

Kneeling at the water's edge Sam saw that it had begun to thaw. Spring was here and he wished to join its celebration of new life as he once had. He remembered a time when he'd been human in early springtime, that was a mere memory for him now.

Now, he was forced to spend springtime as a four legged creature. As a wolf he couldn't quite enjoy springtime as he once had. The thawing water made him heartsick. He longed for a chance to share in spring's celebration of change, knowing that soon summer's heat would allude him too.
