March Carolina dogwoods
popcorn-blossomed spew between         "spew" seems a coarse verb to use here
dew-grassed lemon-crocused earth
and foggy sailcloth sky.                        these last two lines seem a bit overcrowded with images; I'd consider cutting "dew-grassed".  "foggy sailcloth sky" is excellent.

It’s as if trees were spraying
whiteful joy from upright trunks
through boughs and branches deep into
a breath-held overlay        really like these last two lines

or bashful Sun cascading flowers
into each laden swelling stem
brightly nursing, nourishing
this ancient newborn world.  great finish
