April

Aspirations flood
Periods bloom like flowers
Raining poetry…
In a photographer’s lens
Lure of spring…gone in a flash

Thank you so very much, Dear Andrea. You’re right about the word “periods.” It doesn’t fit. Thank you for hosting a fun contest

This Acrostic-Tanka provides the author with a double challenge, and I can say you have ably tackled it, Rhoda. Life is short...time flies by, and it's so easy to miss beautiful moments with which we are continuously being gifted. ~ Best regards // paul
