Saddest things about April

April Unfolds the beauty of the world..
Yet kills each spring field growing in my head..

Although the sun may shine
and trees would grow as they call
for the gentleness of the breeze.

But in April I can neither see
green fields where rivers ripple
as they calmly run
nor I can feel the warmth of the sun

In April each morning would shine with rain
that falls heavily filling the heart of
each valley with more torturing sorrow

-much more pain

In April each night would end with thick snow
only to bury the few paths that I know..
Then I get lost through lonely
endless years as more Aprils
dry the grief of my tears..

Nature lost its meaning, as I caught
April dying in your eyes..
Though angels whispered that your
body would, but your soul never dies..
Still if we revive through our memories
then why can't I witness all these lies ?

"In each frozen kiss, every cruel night
each dim morning, every cold sun
through the grayness of the sky
and the sadness of this month..
or when the flowers never bloom
and the rivers never run.."

Although I know the sun will shine
and the trees will grow as they flirt
with the gentleness of the breeze..
But in April I will never see
the green fields where rivers will ripple
as they coolly run.
Nor will I ever again feel April's sun.

-The spirit of nature that always
emerged from your eyes is lost,
and I too am sorry, that you're Gone.

    This is a beautiful poem with powerful imagery. :-) I loved reading it. I'm quoting here, "May you never know—or if experienced, forget—the river of tears that run deep within your amorous heart that bleeds red with the blood of our Savior." :-) 5/5 Hugz

    "In April each morning would shine with rain"
    "In April each night would end with thick snow"
    - I think you needa comma after April and i think if you change 'each' to every it would read nicer.

    "In April each night would end with thick snow
    only to bury the few paths that I know..
    Then I get lost through lonely
    endless years as more Aprils
    dry the grief of my tears.."
