April II

April II

On the back of a vulture 
she shouted in 
sending spews of hardened hail
as piercing as a winters gale.

On the root of a flower 
she clorfully showed
her dress of green, and ripe buds
on her tips.

On the drop of dew she made a road to the sun.
A smile awakening us from a winter’s sleep we danced and sang, “April."
