<\/a><\/p>\nMy husband, Bob, pauses for a moment for me to take a quick photograph of him with the blooming Forsythia bush.<\/a><\/p>\nWe walk around the yard and stop to look at the delicate yellow flowers that bloom profusely on slender\u00a0branches.<\/p>\n
My poem today is a Tritina.<\/p>\n

April\u2019s favorite color must be yellow.<\/p>\n
She’s a golden-haired lady with an artistic husband<\/p>\n
who plants sweet-smelling\u00a0gardens<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Forsythia branches inspire the clever husband<\/p>\n
dazzle him with the brilliance of sunlit gardens<\/p>\n
watches him paint a canvas buttery- yellow<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Primary colored flowers bloom in April’s \u00a0gardens<\/p>\n
woven daffodil blankets in white and yellow<\/p>\n
captured in paintings by her creative husband<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Yellow sun warms April’s \u00a0husband who tends his springtime gardens.<\/p>\n
