Snow White
Snow white Dogwood dots
the spring green forest's deep wood
petal tips blood red
Cold raindrops wash clean pollen
Blood drops wash sinners' worse sin
There is a legend of the Dogwood..
It is said that it's wood was used to Crucify Christ..
After that it because the gnarled twisted little tree
that it is know as today..The blossom has four
petals and each is tipped with a red scarred looking
tip for Jesus' head, hands, and feet...The center of the
blossoms looks like the crown that was placed upon
Jesus' loving brow..
