Showers in april
Nourishing the breadth of spring
Unfurling fresh life

Roses of crimson
Blest by arbored gates entrance
Crowned by thorny arch

Beside crystal pond
Kaleidoscopic movement
Spinning spring's spectrum

Fields of emerald blade
Carpet dublin's roving hills
With celtic legend

Passionate wing-thrust
Wooing mate from a cypress
Butterfly romance
