APRIL BEAUTY
My tears are falling with the April
rain,
Not for old memories, or any pain,
But that such loveliness can be again.
The tendec ecstasies of bud and leaf
Strike at my heart more tei-ribly than
grief,
Their meaning is so far beyond belief.
Only in April such divine surprise
Startles our skeptic, winter-wearied
eyes;
Only in April perfect wonder lies.
Knowing that beauty has its qower to
sear,
Knowing how much the soul of man
can bear,
God gives us but one April in the
year.
