Destined as one of the latter blooms
for now it resides on the branch
of the season before this

pink over canopes
the shedding of lavender
in the clockwork perfection

slumbering April, in quarter inch
increments, faces the spectator's yearning

soon my child, as

for now,  we can only just speculate

As per norm for you, Emma, you make it pleasant to speculate over . . .

It is the way in the lands of four seasons. Each with its distinctive offerings. Wake April from its slumbers with a burst of color.

More feelings and fewer words please

April here is peeping in yet, no flowers in full bloom, at least in our back and front yards. Like child, I await its coming and your poem awakes this anticipation in me.

We were having days of 4 seasons for a while, "quarter inching" into spring. Thanks for the read. Enjoyed.
