Poet's Corner Conducted by Anne K. Sharp, Chairman Creative Writing Group APRIL PRAYER God, Spring this year is all too fair, And April more than I can bear. Too rich a wine has bubbled up Within each tilted tulip-cup. Beauty herself, stands on the hills, Painting the sky with wonder thrills. God, place Your hand upon the grass, And let the Springtime softly pass. Clyde R. Prot-sman. Member Creative Writing Club. TREETOP ARPEGGIOS A rippling cascade of soft music From small birds on the wing, Alerts us each early April— A gentle call to Spring.
