April No days such honored days as these! When yetFair Aphrodite reigned, men seeking wideFor some fair thing which should forever bideOn earth, her beauteous memory to setIn fitting frame that no age could forget, Her name in lovely April's name did hide, And leave it there, eternally alliedTo all the fairest flowers Spring did beget. And when fair Aphrodite passed from earth, Her shrines forgotten and her feasts of mirth, A holier symbol still in seal and sign, Sweet April took, of kingdom mo...st divine, When Christ ascended, in the time of birthOf spring anemones, in Palestine. May O month when they who love must love and wed!Were one to go to worlds where May is naught, And seek to tell the memories he had broughtFrom earth of thee, what were most fitly said?I know not if the rosy showers shedFrom apple-boughs, or if the soft green wroughtIn fields, or if the robin's call be fraughtThe most with thy delight. Perhaps they readThee best who in the ancient time did sayThou wert the sacred month unto the old:No blossom blooms upon thy brightest daySo subtly sweet as memories which unfoldIn aged hearts which in thy sunshine lie, To sun themselves once more before they die.
