REVIEWS:
~"Reading Apryl Skies' poetry allows for a sense of calm yet cathartic understanding of nature and human ideals...The thoughts we contain in mind which can only scream and bite through our cheeks to get outside of our bodies...From the concise opening prologue, a landscape of possibility lays before the reader and allows for a journey ...What is poetry except for a way to connect with those often indistinguishable ideals creative types extrapolate through music, painting and writing. Apryl's ability to decipher meaning from words appears as easily as identifying “can” in the word canvas. The use of form poetry to accentuate imagery can be seen in poems including “...like rain” which looks on the page as rain sprinkling from the sky. "
