BRIDAL   DRESS FOR THE HAWTHORN TREE

In  the  church  garden   fair,
One glorious  May day  near the ides  -
Blossom  on  gown  and   hair
Flowing,  floating  down her sides,	 
Bosom  and...

A familiar scene to all who walk this lovely 
Spot, as into view close by the river path 
Comes something which is not 
The usual day-to-day. All who pass her pause, 

Then stop to gaze on Haguthorn's display, 
Beyond any season's best this year 
And...

bluebirds on the ledges of the low lying sill
 near the old cotton mill

On the edge of summer
When cherry blossoms bloom
They make sad faces smile
Pink bewitching flower
With power to beguile.

On the edge of summer
Green hedgerows growing spry
Woodbine’s singular spell 
Sparks hawthorn harmony

On the edge of summer
White brimstone butterfly
Dog rose grows fancy-free
Forget-me-knots flutter
An early bee...
