April 1 brings spring and buds

Birds squeaking
in the trees
squirrels

scurrying
and cherry

blossom trees
blossoming.





Beyond Heller Parkway the car picks up some speed. On the left, Branch Brook Park is famous for its cherry blossom display. But anyone waiting for cherries to fall from these trees is in for a long, long wait. If you grew up here, you know they are cherry blossom trees, not cherry trees. And that there are single blossoms and double blossoms.

Across the tracks at Franklin Station, for a few weeks in the spring, you can see the cherry blossoms bloom. If I’ve said it once, I’ve said it a thousand times, they are not cherry trees. The cherry blossom trees produce blossoms not Cherries.

Daffodils smiling
two-tone yellow smiles,
the Saturday WSJ
on the grass
