April, Finally...

I'm reposting a bit that I wrote when I was a teenager, just as I seem to do every year. Redundant, I know...but spring looks like this in my head.

Lady April, He Said
He rolled his chair to me and grinned
Like an idiot
"It's spring time," he whispered
Rolling back before he got caught.

My rain-streaked window agreed
Painting blurred images of
Bud-softened trees and
Water-laden daffodils
And April
Standing out there in her coat of clouds
