This April Day

This April Day

jolly daffodils
are beaming from their daybeds
finch at the feeders

the lazy cat sleeps
as spiders spin their silk webs
in the morning sun

the dew and the lace
reflect like brilliant diamonds
in tender green grass

sunshine and daisies
and the taste of love is sweet
on this April day
