A tiny bud, with power, bursts forth, <br />to signal the arriving spring. <br />One yearly miracle of faith, <br />now that winter’s on the wing. <br /> <br />All others follow in its wake, <br />filling branches with such fresh hope, <br />And each new tree competes to shine <br />in a forest’s kaleidoscope. <br /> <br />Gradually they grow green and plush, <br />showing leaves of various shapes, <br />A finishing touch, pictured in <br />earth’s verdant rich sweeping landscapes. <br /> <br /> <br />© Ernestine Northover<br /><br />Ernestine Northover<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/one-yearly-miracle/
