04/04/14 - NNHS Newsletter - April Come She Will

“Whan that Aprill, with his shoures soote
The droghte of March hath perced to the roote
And bathed every veyne in swich licour,
Of which vertu engendred is the flour;”

- Geoffrey Chaucer
(c. 1343 – 25 Oct 1400?)

Dear Friends and Schoolmates,   

    April, I suppose, is like everything else - it just does what it will when it will.....

From www.ajokeaday.com - 04/03/14:

A famous scientist developed a formula to bring statues to life.

He went to a local park to try it out on a statue of Gen. Ulysses Grant.

After application, Gen Grant began to move and soon was completely alive.

The general answered while drawing his pistol "I'm going to kill about a million @#$% pigeons!"

April Come She Will
Words and Music by Paul Simon (b. 13 Oct 1941) and Art Garfunkel (b. 05 Nov 1941)

Recorded by Simon and Garfunkel, 1965


April come she will
When streams are ripe and swelled with rain;
May, she will stay,
Resting in my arms again

June, she'll change her tune,
In restless walks she'll prowl the night;
July, she will fly
And give no warning to her flight.

August, die she must,
The autumn winds blow chilly and cold;
September I'll remember.
A love once new has now grown old.
