"Springtime was always my favorite time of year
A time for lovers holding hands in the rain
Now springtime only reminds me of Tracy's tears
Always cry for love, never cry for pain
Sometimes it snows in April " - Lyrics from 'Prince' song "Sometimes It Snows in April" 1986 - A Tribute to the Song
Listen to poem:
I lit a candle on a still windless night,
yet still the flame snuffed out of sight.
I spoke your name into this quaff of breeze.
It answered back with sounds of fallen leaves.
Sometimes
It Snows in Spring,
Again and Again!
You left before the thaw had come again.
Before the apple tree dared to bud.
For Spring was early, Winter not left behind.
Green shoots frozen in what could have been.
Sometimes
It Snows in Spring,
Again and Again!
Each Spring I remember the snow,
That came sometimes, way too soon,
To sing of Santa's sleigh, and 'Auld Lang Syne'
To you, my April Snow in Springtime.
Sometimes
It Snows in Spring,
Again and Again!
