Walking along
In the woods at dusk
April swears
Is the best shortcut
A sea of grain sways
Rows of corn
The harvest decimates
The fields forlorn
Clever April
Known for her guile
Could out think most
Even as a child
Summer solstice
Autumn equinox
Clever April kindred
To the clever fox
The scarecrow holds
Fire to his chest
While the dark croupier
Will call in the debt
An ancient offering
Of the first fruits
The dance play shakes
Dirt from the roots
Clever April
Looks past the clouds
And through the mist
To the mountains they shroud
Have fun in the sun
Daylight on the run
Darkness soon will come
Winter just begun
Summer solstice
Autumn equinox
Clever April kindred
To the clever fox
April walks sunwise
Around the well
Listens to the wind
For it's story to tell
Rolling hills goddess
She longs for more
Then two hands holding
Through a hole in a door
Clever April
Looks past the crowd
Up past the roofs
And the houses they shroud
Playtime in the snow
Winter fire glow
Springtime here we go
Waiting for the summer crow
Summer solstice
Autumn equinox
Clever April kindred
To the clever fox
Moonlight smiles down
Shadows dance around
A young girl plays
With her straw corn dolly
As April observes
The fools and their folly
Oh how she wanders
Light as the breeze
Walks through the fields
Before the first freeze
Clever April
Known for her guile
Could out think most
Even as a child
