April!

The continuation of the Month series.

Eastermonad is upon us once more in teen,

Fever gathers close and a sure all beckons,

Dice have been set against high tides,

Members launch a thought one reckons.

Family of states hail all our dear poets,

Writing strewn in sand and on screen,

Lost souls race back to the ears low,

Sudden movements betray the unseen.

TS teaches she is the cruellest of all,

A man of greater knowledge we know not,

Round head spinning on tables red,

A shine of silver hits the end I now got.

Orwell states the clock striking thirteen,

May we see inside those heavenly names,

April shoots forth as blossomed daffodils,

Remember to breath deep playing games.

[AprilRN1210]

I am partial to April, obviously having been born in and named after the month. That being said, it can be quite a biatch.

It can be mischievous and fun with the celebration of April fool's day. (who doesn't love a great practical joke?) It can also be a charmingly beautiful month of fertility and growth. You can delight in the still cool air without the frost nipping at your nose or feel the warmth of the sun without the scorching heat...

As you mentioned it is also the month to celebrate writers... So not all bad... I love the rhythm of this piece makes the reader feel carefree as if frolicking amongst the daffodils but just enough of an edge to it to remind us that it isn't all sunshine and rainbows.

Thank you.

April is cruel month // alternatively, any cruel month may be termed as "April".. ;-)

joke apart, I love your month-wise theme and the narration :)

Such a well-penned poem, Thomas... indeed, April is such a cruel month and yet we beg for it to hurry and get here.. shows how complex we humans are.

Indeed, thank you

Viva la Poetry month., April has her new dress on, cryptic but lovely, I enjoyed, not so much a game player, but spring is delightful and so are your lines.
