APRIL, April, laughing by, April, can you tell me why You are happy, you are gay?— Have you seen my Love to-day? April, did you ever know Tides of fragrant glory so Swift to flood the avenue?— Listen, eager April, you! April, when I saw her last, All her laughter, as she past, Like a sudden flame in air, Quenched the sunlight everywhere! .. Tell me, did you ever see How it is that Love could be Sweetness poured on me like this, Sweetness burning in a kiss! April, April, going by, Underneath a flame of sky,— April, have you seen my Sweet, Laughing down the laughing street? | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE THRUSH'S NEST by JOHN CLARE THE DEBT by PAUL LAURENCE DUNBAR THE INDIAN WEED by RALPH ERSKINE DAUGHTERS OF WAR by ISAAC ROSENBERG CONTENT; WRITTEN OFF ITHACA by ALFRED AUSTIN THE WEDDING DAY; OR, THE BUCCANEER'S CURSE; A FAMILY LEGEND by RICHARD HARRIS BARHAM |
