April Thoughts

A gray old rock in pasture,
An azure stretch of sky
A sparkle Of running water
Temptingly met my eye.
Just glorious April weather,
Never a cloud in the blue,
A brisk breeze floating over,
A warm sun shining through
The cedar tops behind me-
Invite me to rest there
And let my cares drift from mo
Away in the soft spring air.
The Past seems floating mistlike,
Borne of by blue-bird's note;
And Futures colors seem moro gay
Inspired from a sparrow's throat.
We need but live in the Present.
And Future will work its way;
A smile will bring us sunshine,
For life is not all May.
Caressing warmth shines down,
Begone, We cares! Away!
A day at time we only live,
And this an April day.
