Bleeding Heart plants weep
silent tears in Spring's gush
as cherry blossoms shed crepe petals
like ashes of roses wafting
from ardent fire.
Blood tears droop scarlet despair
while lilacs and budding strawberries
preen the first exultation of shy apples,
blushing in new euphoria of Spring.
Rhododendrons pale
at May's trail of Hansel-and-Gretel crumbs
pirouetting like ballet slippers
in capricious winds that blow
like impatiens' teasing kisses,
leading daylight to a warm reflection
giggling on a docile pond's lucid waters.
