We have all heard this rhyme at some point in time, usually having been
taught it at an early age by our parents or teachers. It’s a popular thing to
say and hear around springtime, but one thing you might not know is where the
rhyme originated from. It can be traced back to the mid 1500s, although earlier
uses of “April showers bring May flowers” may have existed.
Thomas Tusser
compiled a collection of writings, in which he wrote, “Sweet April showers, Do
spring May flowers.”
As
you can see, the rhyme was originally a short poem. There is meaning behind the
words, as well. “April showers bring May flowers” is a reminder that even the
most unpleasant of things, in this case the heavy rains of April, can bring
about very enjoyable things indeed – in this case, an abundance of flowers in
May. “April showers bring May flowers” is a lesson in patience, and one that
remains valid to this day. www.feelingsandflowers.com
