April

Nothing in the world could be
as kind as April in the morn
when day reborn
returns to sky.

Passion builds and then climaxes,
she and I beneath the sky.
A million dreams and every future
grow and blossom
in her smile.

Stay with me my lovely April!
Stay and linger for a while!

    Liked the gentle romanticism of this, it's a huge contrast to Eliot's April is the cruellest month... I know you're using April as a person but I like the ambiguity suggested by the use of name. 'when day reborn/returns to sky' is such a beautiful line, I loved it! Also liked the way it shifted from an almost lyrical mood to something slightly more physical and the imagery is extremely evocative. Great use of personification too. Thanks for sharing, it's good to read of some love for a change. Cheers.

    Nicely put, well written with poetic flare. The poem has a message and delivers it well. This reads as a love poem with sensual overtones. Your poem say a lot with little wording and that is hard to do. A very moving and heart felt poem, thought provoking yet gentle.

    Sounds like this is about more than the month of April. Liked the sentiments expressed so well in these lines, the flow and the ending. Stay and linger for a while - time for another round perhaps? Easy to say things in a few lines too, rather than running on at the bit for many lines that say nothing more. Liked the brevity of this poem and the visuals they bring to mind - a few welcome memories as well.
