Dogwood
Born of ignorant sod
King of kings, son of God
Halo crown of thorn
Pivotal pinnacles adorn
Crucifix dogwood tree
Suffer so dire malady
Forge rugged cross
Convey sanctioned loss
Purest blossoms white
Pristine petals alight
Tips in sanguine red
Pierced divine bloodshed
Father's grief enlisted
Boughs gravely twisted
Ne'er again use malice
Hardwood most callous
