Hazels In Winter

HAZELS in WINTER While Winter yet prevails scarce changing state With sun a slanted elevation gleam Across the land the trees in patience wait Their preparation moves in ways unseen Yet Hazel with a prescience made fair Decks boughs with pendant baubles: pale green bling Like jewels of nature dangling in cool air Precursors to full verdancy of Spring Thus each and every species in its way Enhances with diversity our world Should wishes for equality hold sway Conformance would repress, with freedom furled While more of same will jade the richest yearning Disparity will keep desire still burning
