the sun bids a farewell to the earth,
then waves at the moon
because it's her cue.
she always comes  
at the perfect time,
and she helps the night
whisper hello to the world.
#escapril day 30!
This was a wonderful challenge and an incredible way to celebrate April. Now we're saying goodbye to April and hello to May.
the professor of unmasking will be
conducting the lecture to-day
and it's recommended that students
tune into the things he'll say

we'll take a little peek
at the layers he'll reveal
the exercise being similar
to removing an onion's peel

you'll not forget
the knowledge he'll impart

recollection cart

so let's commence the lesson

you
offer

meant for his hood

yellow with dishonor
spineless of back

to face an attack

his veins so desperately
bereft of fortitude
they were so inglorious
in their aptitude

And lost their new,
Blue shoes,
But gained a new
Blue hue,

Drew,
and Rue,
got married in Peru,
Under their New,
