Green Grows the Leaves of Spring

22nd March 2022

She had grown
Oh my, how she’d grown
But up, not out or down
I feared she’d never now fit in her gown
A new outfit for her
A dress all in shades of green
The most beautiful dapple ever seen
No scrimping, no cutting tight
No disregard of the final sight
From her roots, nothing cropped
Up, up, to her very treetop
