The wonderful Bradford Pear in Spring

The Bradford Pear By Franklin Price 2/26/2017 I am the glorious Bradford Pear. My leaves are turning white I'm lining many streets and lanes Trimmed and spaced just right Other trees with branches bare Show not a leaf in sight I do not have to share your eyes I'm selfish of the light. Will be snow-like for just awhile Then time will change the scene Turning my leaves from snowflake white To ones of Springtime green
