TO CHERRY-BLOSSOMES by ROBERT HERRICK

Poet Analysis

First Line: YE MAY SIMPER, BLUSH, AND SMILE
Last Line: WHEN AS CHERRIES COME IN PLACE?
Subject(s): CHERRY TREES;
Ye may simper, blush, and smile,
And perfume the aire a while:
But (sweet things) ye must be gone;
Fruit, ye know, is comming on:
Then, Ah! Then, where is your grace,
When as Cherries come in place?
