Oh how I wish that I could be
A cherry on a cherry tree
I’d wear a gown of frothy pink
As early spring was on the brink
Rains soon would flush my garb away
Uncovering my round display
While time and warmth help me to grow
Soon all my cherry colors glow
And so, my friends when birds arrive
It takes some effort to survive
I’ll make it through to harvest time
Now isn’t that sweet and sublime
Please tell me after you’ve seen me
Am I a top notch bing cherry ?
