April is National Poetry Month, which I didn’t know until I started reading Vidya Tiru’s postings for the two blogging challenges that we are both participating in.

It finally looks like and almost feels like spring. Well, winter is really trying not to go bye bye, but it’s obviously in its last hurrah stages. Fortunately, the plants are growing and the color is back with the early spring flowers. And not only are there the flowers that nature provides, there are also
