"PURPLE-PINK REDBUDS"
Spring has sprung...............first day of spring
A tree in our neighbor's backyard......I love the color combinations of the buds!
"Beauty in Our Forests" by Maimee Lee Robinson Browne
Deep in the forests in spring
When the redbird makes her first call
She sees only the green of the cedar
and the Redbud through brown leaves of fall.
Brilliant buds tempt travelers to gather
Small sprays to take on their way,
Denuding the forests of slender
and wasting God’s glory each day.
To protect this miracle of springtime
When drab colors become radiant hue,
Help God keep beauty in our forests
For birds and mankind to view.
