April is National Poetry Month. So have a poem!
***
Spring
Yesterday the winds cut without pause
slicing through light coats and jabbing at ears and noses
people huddled, hands in pockets
The day before shone warmly–searing blue cloudless sky
parched of shade
all the flowers bright
in red yellow pink white
sweetly wafting lures to bees
Today is in between, the wind tossing the leaves high
lacking teeth or claws
sky a patchwork of sun and shade-casting vapor puffs
distant sounds of music and laughter
and a glass of sweet tart lemonade
Even though we have sailed right past spring and into blazing summer around here, I love this one. Perfect imagery!! 😀
Good ol’ Texas weather… 😉
Hope it gave you a cool breeze.
