As the magician conjures up a ring
Behind his silken, snow white handkerchief;
Rising, the golden sun unveils the Spring
And vanishes the snow it hid beneath.
Caterpillars turn into butterflies
As white gloves in a black top hat become
Doves which, spreading their snow white wings, arise
And next, by the same hocus-pocus comes
Blooming crocus’s and chrysanthemums.
Restored like a conjuror cut in twain
April brings the whole world to life again.

Thanks, insert. I really like magic and can't stop watching Penn and Teller videos and David Copperfield, he's an amazing showman.

Oh look, a link. I wonder where it leads.

Thanks, Scratch. I try to like this month; there's been a few sunny day's which I'm thankful for but today the weather's been a bit awful. I'm still cheery though, dreaming about the Spring. Glad you liked it.
