WILD PLUM BLOSSOMS, by EVA K. ANGLESBURG First Line: Seafoam and mist and moonbeams Last Line: Robed in their bridal lace. Subject(s): Flowers; Plums; Trees; Plum Trees | |||
Seafoam and mist and moonbeams Mingled to fashion these Delicate, dream-like blossoms Clothing the wild-plum trees. How can such gnarled, gray branches Froth in a single hour Into a snowy, scented Splendor of bud and flower? Never have hands created Loveliness to compare With that which Spring has woven For the wild plums to wear. Moonlight adds new enchantment Lends more ethereal grace; Nothing so fair as plum trees Robed in their bridal lace. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THIS IS JUST TO SAY by WILLIAM CARLOS WILLIAMS TO A POOR OLD WOMAN by WILLIAM CARLOS WILLIAMS PLUM TREE by VIRGINIA WOODSON FRAME CHURCH THE LONG TRAIL: THE TIMBER by ELIZABETH SEWELL HILL THE PLUM ON THE SILL by ERIC PANKEY BROTHER GENE by EVA K.
