April - A Mirrored Or Double Acrostic

This week's prompts of Poets And Storytellers United are a bunch of quotes:

Rommy  says, "The month of April seems to have lots of different imagery associated with it, as can be seen in these quotes.

1. “Although I was born in April, I’m quite certain I was not fully awake until October.” ~ Peggy Toney Horton 

2. “It was a bright cold day in April, and the clocks were striking thirteen.” ~ George Orwell 

3. “April is the kindest month. April gets you out of your head and out working in the garden.” ~ Marty Rubin 

4. “It is spring again. The earth is like a child that knows poems by heart.” ~ Rainer Maria Rilke 

5. “April is the cruelest month, breeding lilacs out of the dead land, mixing memory and desire, stirring dull root with spring rain.” ~ T. S. Eliot 

Your optional prompt for this week is to pick one (or more) of these quotes and use them as inspiration for your pieces."

I take inspiration from the third quote by Martin Rubin and present a mirrored acrostic or a double acrostic.

Though the month of April, this part of the globe, can be quite formidable heralding a scorching summer but this season sudden showers have tempered the days with milder hues. That is why April stands out a bit kinder than usual this year.

This poem is also inspired by Luisa Zambrota's invite for an acrostic on April

Again April

Perhaps it will be kinder still

Remaining with me as my strength 

Infusing an urge to head out of my

Languid thoughts and moods

Leaving me without a choice to

Incubate melancholy in a closed jar and 

Realign creativity with nascent dreams 

Poised to win over my self and this world as

Again it's April
