Loveliest of trees, the cherry now
Is hung with bloom along the bough,
And stands about the woodland ride
Wearing white for Eastertide.

One of these days … I have to say I’ve never written poetry unless forced to at school.
In fact I may need to write some this month if I’m going to manage a poem and matching photo for all 31 squares!
