Poem of the Day: ‘Aprilian’
The April of the poet’s memory is a young man’s month, knowledgeable about the past but unburdened by the sorrows of that past.
For a week of poetry about the month of April — which began on Monday with the General Prologue to Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales and ends on Friday with the first part of T.S. Eliot’s “The Waste Land” — The New York Sun today features “Aprilian,” a poem that Bliss Carman (1861–1929) included in his 1922 volume, “Later Poems.”
