i wish i was bigger, dear April so i could give you a ring like daddy gave to mommy; a ring so small so round. but today, dear April, let’s sing trees in puddles ripple mudsplashing holdinghands as we laugh and cry because the summer goes by.
i wish i was stronger, dearer April so i could carry you away because time is a monster sleeping under your bed. but today, dearer April, let’s dance a ring around the rosies with May June and July and let’s pick all the poppies while spring is in the air.
i wish i was taller, dearest April so i could hold your umbrella while we parachute to our dreams and i’ll catch you when we fall. but today, dearest April, let’s float up up up like reverse snowflakes all the way to the moon and then uper than the stars because winter is ending soon.
(i wish i was younger, everdear April so i could see you again and smell your hair in sunshine like angelscent memory. but today, everdear April, i’ll remember the way we sang danced floated dreamed all the way to the moon of marry until you fell away like a leaf sailing in the winds of autumn)
