there it stood
a cherry tree..
laden heavily with fruit
branches weighed down
with ripe red cherries,
leaving me wonderstruck and mute,
so much sweetness, on just one tree
glistening red, among the glossy green,
a wondrous sight such as this,
I'd hardly ever seen..
Then along came a group of children
picked bunches and went their way,
I, ve more to give, come one come all,
the cherry tree seemed to say,
God's love is like the cherry tree,
waiting just to be picked, and had,
branches bowed with the weight of it,
cheering us when we're blue or sad,
lets pick the cherries every day,
not only when we need
lets plant the tree of love today
and nurture, with rememberance, the seed.
His love is like the cherry tree
enough for one and all,
submit your cares and worries to Him,
and then stand proud and tall.
