Redbud blooms outside my front door.
Red buds open into pink flowers
Like cotton candy on dark sticks
Waving in the sweet air,
Attracting bees and
Singing spring songs.
When leaves come on
They push the blossoms.
Which fall softly-
A pink ring of
Melted strawberry ice cream
Around the trunk on a green grass plate.
