9 de Abril

"Again the blackbirds sings; the streams,

Wake, laughing, from their winter dreams,

and tremble in the April showers,

the tassels of the maple flowers"

John Greenleaf Whittier

April, late 16th century

"Speed on the ship! - But let her bear

No merchandise of sin,

No groaning cargo of despair

Her roomy hold within;

No lethean drug for Eastern lands,

Nor poison-draught for ours;

But honest fruits of toiling hands

And Nature's sun and showers"

John Greenleaf Whittier
