April…a poem

april
can’t be trusted
anything can happen
in april
the weather is
unpredictable
the only thing that can be said
about it
is
WHO KNOWS WHAT’S COMING NEXT
it’s a contrary month
full of fits and starts
storms and gentle rains
sunshine and soft clouds
it can lull you into believing
that spring has arrived
until you wake up and
see snow on the ground
april is the
trickster
a friend of
Coyote
you can’t help
but love them
but you have to
stay on your toes
whenever they’re around
