I’m afraid these may show up out of order. Sometimes I can’t force out a poem, or it may take more than one day for me to write it!

Day 4 NaPoWriMo 

The Cruelest Month

Glorious sunshine
Thermometer bright
Boots in the box and coats out of sight. 

Children outdoors now 
Sunglasses we need
The warmth hugs and holds us, our hopes it exceeds. 

Spring break begins now
For April has come
Projects outdoors, and then hours of fun. 

But weather surprise us
A fire we need
Inside the air’s chilly, we just can’t believe

We wake to find white
No sign of the sun
Vacation is tarnished, what happened to fun?

Dear April why now 
Does snow grace our land?
Spring weather expected and now we demand. 

Sunshine come back now
And warm our bare skin
And let the vacation now finally begin.
