April's Charms
 
  When April scatters charms of primrose gold
Among the copper leaves in thickets old,
And singing skylarks from the meadows rise,
To twinkle like black stars in sunny skies;

When I can hear the small woodpecker ring
Time on a tree for all the birds that sing;
And hear the pleasant cuckoo, loud and long --
The simple bird that thinks two notes a song;

When I can hear the woodland brook, that could
Not drown a babe, with all his threatening mood;
Upon these banks the violets make their home,
And let a few small strawberry blossoms come:

When I go forth on such a pleasant day,
One breath outdoors takes all my cares away;
It goes like heavy smoke, when flames take hold
Of wood that's green and fill a grate with gold.

William Henry Davies

I just love things like that yorkie. I think that why I liked that one I posted. Even if the flowers don’t really mean what the words beside them say, its fun just for enjoyment, isn’t it?

“Six Purple Violets Hanging in a Row”. Sweet!

Thank you, Johnn. That is so beautifully written.

".....Wind kissed scents, to touch us there
amid our hurts, to lave His sweet care
Each a treasure, and a gift sent in love
each reminds us, of the promise of the Dove"

I enjoyed your April’s Charms poem! Now tell me, is that statue the “God of Charms”?

Dear FRiends, I had Remembered a Discussion about how our Posts Look Different in Different Internet Browsers, and on a Whim I Previewed my Lord's Day Post in 3 Browsers: Internet Explorer, Firefox, and my Favorite Browser, Opera.

Good Grief, Lol! :( My Apologies to All for the Monstrosities I've been Posting; my Scripture Fonts were Black in Firefox, Turquoise in Internet Explorer, and the Right Color of Violet Red in Opera.

I Tried Switching from Typing the Color Names to Typing the Color Codes/Numbers, and it Fixed it in Internet Explorer, but it was still Black in Firefox. :( Your Poor Eyes, Lol! Sorry about the Mish-Mash of Colors I've Inadvertantly Posted over the Months and Years! (((((Hugs)))))

I don’t recall monstrosities, Kitty...I use IE exclusively.
I had a relatively new monitor dying on me once..I was posting neon green frames and using dark teal instead of darkblue I discovered when I got a new computer...I could not see the patterns in some backgrounds so I posted some very “busy” frames..LOL
