Cherry blossom

                                                                                                                 

Loveliest of trees, the cherry now Is hung with bloom along the bough...
A.E. Houseman  The Shropshire Lad II, 1887

As the earth turns its face towards the sun, the colour of blossom warms from the chalk-white of blackthorn and damson to a hint of rose in the cherry trees across the Church Meadow.
