The blossom exploding from baring bud,
Showering lawns with lilac dander.
A benediction bound in nature’s love.
Branches laden, heavy with flowers
Sweet adulation in perfumed repose,
Beauty distinct fragrant overpowers
Consuming the senses is manic throes.
Then it fruits, its summery shift
To languish berries bright bursting red…good
For us to pick as the seasonal gift
Before the tree starts to Autumnal shed. … this is an odd line, grammatically (‘starts to autumnal shed’)
Start again your sleep encrusted with snow
Until the awakening when winter goes. … sudden shift from third person to second without an address
Thought i'd try a sonnet
But see if you can make the rhymes more natural
Good effort, and appreciate the choice of tackling a sonnet head on!!!
