The dark green leaves on blackberry vines
show their tender growth with spiny sides
to which tiny white flowers will emerge
as leaves on ten foot hedges of laurel
capture brilliant streams of sunlight
radiating from tiny holes in the clouds
causing the laurel leaves to glisten
as with brilliant yellow diamonds
being painted thus a gift from the sun
while borders cannot contain the heather
tiny lavender bell shaped flowers
whose beauty will not be tethered
all bow as the maiden queens arrives
pink cherry blossoms guild her boughs
standing regal beneath grey blue skies
