Always Marry an April Girl / Ogden Nash


Always Marry An April Girl

Praise the spells and bless the charms,
I found April in my arms.
April golden, April cloudy,
Gracious, cruel, tender, rowdy;
April soft in flowered languor,
April cold with sudden anger,
Ever changing, ever true —
I love April, I love you.

~~
Ogden Nash (1902-1971)
from Verses from 1929 on,1959
