April Come She Will
April come she will
When streams are ripe and swelled with rain;
May, she will stay,
Resting in my arms again.
June, she’ll change her tune,
In restless walks she’ll prowl the night;
July, she will fly
And give no warning to her flight.
August, die she must,
The autumn winds blow chilly and cold;
September I’ll remember
A love once new has now grown old.
April Come She Will - Simon & Garfunkel

April has arrived. I love the month of April, it always seems to be a carefree and whimsical month. April brings to mind the colors of the rainbow, of newly opened blossoms wet with dew. The scent of flowers fill the air, and the sound of a bat hitting a baseball can be heard. April is the taste of a shared cup of tea.
While Easter may be in March, it is April that reminds me of rebirth and new beginnings. April is first kisses, and new loves walking hand in hand. April is shared vows. April is little babies and the laughter of children. April is a name of shy sweet girls. April is soft rains and poetry read aloud.
Have a great Aloha Friday !

That’s because you live in Hawaii, you wouldn’t be so in love with April if you lived in Portland Oregon like me!

April is a wonderful month here with spring flowers everywhere and the cherry trees blossoming. The drawback is the April showers.

As always, thanks to everyone for the great comments.
@Annalise, I’m not completely sure of the name of the flower, but I believe it’s part of the Ohia family.
@Egypt, April isn’t a place, but a state of mind.
