WHEN APRILCOMES
April blows and April snows
it also shines and showers
April is nature’s opening act
for spring’s big show of flowers.
When April shakes her magic rinse
Upon the still, cold ground,
it stars the ”splendor in the grass”
and budding all around.
April’s not “the cruelest month”
no matter what they say,
she washes winter’s sullen face
to reveal the smiles of May
