All too soon the countryside, <br />Now fresh greened and sprouting more <br />Than spring, looks out for wider <br />Room, shakes it's newborn blossoms <br />Then ushers April to the door. <br />And April's away. <br /> <br />No longer teenage, Flora's <br />Grown maturer now, slightly <br />Deeper hued, flowers adorning <br />Every late spring bough, while <br />April, already pale, turns white, <br />Then April's away. <br /> <br />Heated by more ardent sun, <br />Hedgerows must have stronger feed. <br />Palid from work early done <br />April leaves, - makes way for May <br />To ensure Flora has her needs <br />Now April's away.<br /><br />Fay Slimm<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/april-s-away/
