1950s SMALL TOWN LIFE/April Night





April Night

Rain
And folk music.
Barefoot, with tousled hair,
I sit here quietly
Hearing the wind, my tears, and counterpoint melodies.
My hand trembles in the april chill,
(April has never been cold before).
And I shiver as I sit here,
For truly I am sorry,
But the tears are not for you.
