Notes About The Poem

April of Spring

Welcome April as a roulette of wildflowers enchants my breath like nightfall's ambrosia, flaming the delicacy of charmed kisses and wine...how springtime breeze pirouettes to refresh a tingle of laughter, of lusty abandon ; then to caress me with your adorned gown as early dawn unfurls a bevy of laced trees : Inimitable goddess of fertility you are; whistling tunes from awakened bird-chimes and to return with an exuberant hello; youthful as a voice stirred by flake’s departure-- this parade lavishing my earthy bosom rises along a decorated courtyard-- those hands spilling reds, tangerines, pinks on varnished lattice...and the way you strut into a waltz, a face draped by moon, sunshine... April of Child-Spring, linger on way beyond hello. Hello Contest: For Silent One 1/16/2019
