Cherry Tree by Sara

There is a moment

When colorful buds

Peer, half-asleep

Through heavy lids,

And wonder if they have

A few moments more

To rest like weary eyes

Before busy visitors - humming and buzzing

As they fill their pockets with golden pollen treasure -

Arrive.

But the sun is warm.

And the songbird is here - joined by another and another -

Together sounding the alarm that spring has finally come.

So it is time to wake up.

This is just to say by William Carlos Williams (sent in by Lisa)

I have eaten 

the plums

that were in 

the icebox

and which 

you were probably

saving 

for breakfast.

Forgive me 

they were delicious

so sweet

and so cold
