My Lady April

by Ernest Dowson

In the realm of poetry, Ernest Dowson's "My Lady April" stands as a captivating tribute to the season of spring and the ephemeral beauty of youth. Dowson's masterful use of language and imagery brings to life the vibrant colors, delicate scents, and fleeting moments of a season that embodies renewal and transformation. As the poem unfolds, Dowson personifies April as a captivating lady, adorning her with dewdrops as earrings and a crown of blooming flowers. Her footsteps are light and graceful, brushing upon the newly awakened grass, while her voice trills like a sweet melody.
