Blossom bursting with fragrance
Hanging from pillar-like trees.
Mossy greens and warm browns
Embrace all in mulchy bliss.
Sun-kissed breeze and raindrops
Accent a perfection already reached.
Each passing year it grows stronger,
With melancholy and wisdom.
Shaded purple summers caress
Hidden loving hugs of freedom.
