Blazing yellow forsythia dances into spring
Row after row the first bushes rise and sing
The state flower of Brooklyn, New York
Forsythia borders houses, field and fork
In the road forsythia ambling on declares
Its place in parks, cascade rocks beware
Wildflowers a riot of rainbow colors emerge
Blooming first a 'beauty blossom' is so rare
In the bloom of spring butterflies take flight
Spreading their happy rebirth now in sight
While busy builders birds build nests
To fledge their young and do not rest
Till the work is done a song is sung
And the leaves burst from slumber
Bursting forth green and cherry blossom
Pink drifting over forest and city streets
Renewal, rejuvenation, rebirth such joy
An explosion of blooms now deploy
Reminds us, marvel at nature's beauty
A gift bestowed without any duty.
