Verdant Meadows
A bird sings with melodic flow
As butterflies flutter to and fro
While a summer breeze does gently blow
At the edge of the woods where blackberries grow
In verdant meadows blackberries florish
And many creatures this fruit does nourish
It is also used for medical reasons
The Romans enjoyed blackberry tea in its season
Along country highways in sunshine's glare
You'll find blackberries growing there
Some may stop to gather the fruit
And many others will follow suit
Seasons will change and leaves will turn gold
Snowflakes will fall as winter unfolds
But in meadows in summer's glow
There'll be places where blackberries grow
