Notes About The Poem
From around 2009. This is me in front of one of my wonderful trees blooming in April
The Blossoming
The blossoming
came a bit early,
and April Fool’s Day
pulled the sweetest trick.
I left my house, and
when I got back home,
white buds had shown up
blooming nice and thick!
My pear tree
looks its prettiest
in April.
Although it’s said
that flowers
come in May,
I see so many
rainy days in March;
then April flowers
pop up more each day.
I wonder why
they say it’s
April showers
bringing blooms in May
because I think
it’s rays from sun
that shower
on my trees
in April
when they flower
white, blue, and pink.
Written April 7, 2016 for Anacreontic Verse 3 Contest of Edward Ebbs
