Say This About Redbuds

Say this about redbuds when they bloom,
They are a challenge to winter's gloom.

They are beauty, the dawn and spring,
They are music that sky-larks sing.

They are tapers which light the dark,
To the lost a gleam, to the clod a spark.

They are the light from sun and star
Showing us where the heavens are.

Redbuds are ecstasy past all art,
They are gladness which lifts the heart.

By Laressa Cox McBurney
Published in Always The Prairie in 1949

Another poem by my Great-Aunt, Laressa Cox McBurney.
