First Line: The wild cherry is in bloom

Subject(s): Cherries; Fruit; Moon; Noon; Wind


The wild cherry is in bloom;
I saw it in splendor of noon,
White like snow on a mountain peak,
My heart worshipped -- I couldn't speak.

Oh, but in the moon's silvery light
You wear a bridal gown . . . white,
Caressed by the night wind that blew . . .
Wild cherry. I give my heart to you.
