April Fools Poem by David Kowalczyk

April Fools

Rating: 4.2


Spring. A great yellow stain.
Forsythias burst and daffodils explode.
Swallows hurry back from Mexico
and are bitten by
the laughing snows of April.


Spring, the smile
of a ninety-year old man
who can't hear a thing you say
yet keeps talking to you nonetheless.


Spring and dreams
have that in common.

Difficult to determine whether this treacle should be classified as jejune or as infantile....

I thought the purpose and the meaning were clear enough given the title to make this a poem to recommend. The creativity does not add to the clarity but it demonstrates a focus on the meaning that was important. GW62

Suddenly, I feel nauseous. Very nauseous.
