Not made of one
and not fully of another
April sits somewhere
inbetween
crying for the difference
no one notices.
April showers bring May
flowers are the transition point
between her and the rest of the world.
Another cross over in an essay
the 'therefore' and 'then'
of each pre arranged paragraph.
When the bark of each tree
is cold and wet
darker than it should be
while the grass grows green
in contrast.
What she brings to life
is only noticed because of the indoor life
of everyone she meets.
No more singing in the rain
or quite conversations on the porch
of other rainy months
where things were happy and content
to wait another week
for spring.
April cries
because the world turns
too slowly for them
and too quickly for
true company
in the rains
of the wet season.
Author notes
The joys of a month to often passed by because of the constant drizzle. I love the privacy the rain affords me...
