“April,” by Sandra Lim

Poetry faculty member Sandra Lim was recently featured in the LEON Literary Review. Read an excerpt of “April” below:

April

Showers overnight. Coffee on the desk,
Untasted, now cold.

The birds have been silent all morning.
But you still suppose

The world will bound toward you,
Opening its gardens and doors!

The pale, irregular blush of Winter Daphne
Spreads outside and upward.
