April could be . . .
The 5 letter daily Wordle
Sunshine
Warmth
Full of green growth
Budding flowers
But instead
April is
Snow
Wind
Snow Again
Wind
Tornadoes
Weather alerts
Severe storms
Slow to warm
Only one crocus
Daring to bloom
Wind roaring
Coats required
April
This fourth month
Unseasonably cool
Slowly greening
One third gone
Unsettling
Fleeting seconds of joy
Amidst gloomy, grey and dreary days.
Where is spring?
Will it be a short spring? What will nature bring? What weather patterns will you see in April?

Thank you, Two Writing Teachers, for this weekly forum.

March might have the lion/lamb adage, but April always seems wilder. We went from 77F on Thursday to snow yesterday. You capture this swing beautifully.
Forty degree swings in less than a day are becoming the norm. I feel like a yoyo.
Thanks, Adrienne!
Fran, if you happen to fins Spring please send it out way as well. This week we are to have spring-like temperatures, but next week it is back to below normal temps. Crazy weather!
Spring! I am ready for some consistency for sure and will be quite happy to share it!
Hope springs each April…and each April brings shocking discouragement. My Facebook memories of snow covered sidewalks remind me that April is never uniformly what I expect. You’ve captured it here, Fran!

Hope vs. Discouragement.
So true.
My favorite is remembering 10# of snow in May about 25 years ago. That was a shocker!
And your comment was a real comment. I hate when that happens on my phone!
