Hello readers, welcome to OCpoetry. This subreddit is a writing workshop community -- a place where poets of all skill levels can share, enjoy, and talk about each other's poetry. Every person who's shared, including the OP above, has given some feedback (those are the links in the post) and hopes to receive some in return (from you, the readers).

If you really enjoyed this poem and just want to drop a quick comment, to show some appreciation or give kudos, things like "great job!" or "made me cry", or "loved it" or "so relateable", please do. Everyone loves a compliment. Thanks for taking the time to read and enjoy.

If you want to share your own poem, you'll need to give this writer some detailed feedback. Good feedback explains from your point of view what it was like to read the poem, and then tries to explain how the poem made you feel like that. If you're not sure what that means, check out our [feedback guide](https://new.reddit.com/r/ocpoetry/wiki/feedbackcritiques), or look 

I like the feelings of sadness and pain but also a faint glimmer of hope that this poem elicits from me. It paints a picture of the idea of spring being around the corner but not quite here yet as a way to sort of see the pain and the relief from the pain.

I really enjoy this and how it shows that when you going though hard times you try reaching out your begging for a new begging ❤

I really appreciate a simple poem, that manages to portray so much emotion.

It is a display of effective word choice, pacing, punctuation, and rhyme. 

The rhyme helps tie the short, and simple poem together. 

Again, the poem succeeds best in its word choice, as it can portray emotions clearly, effectively, and simply.

An April Day

full of rain,

but still remain

the stains of pain

&amp;#x200B;

Soaked in sin,

no solace yet.

Please Lord, please,

let me forget
