The Flower Season-Anacreontic Verse

Although flowers have fully bloomed, there's scarce sunshine, only rain showers fall on them for hours. The red hyacinths which are cold and sad, lament bright sunrays; April is still cool, spruces flutter over the red pansies and yellow tulips. The sun can't break through, it still covers the willows with rain, while the blue lilacs gleam with raindrops. The fragrant roses drip and wait for the butterflies and honeybees that hide in spruces; beautiful insects spring forth and fly into the cloudless April sky so blue. Written on 4/9/2016
