Blossom Song

By Kathryn Morski

A Cappella

Creature or Human, Tree or vine,
  Each comes to fruit in it's own time.
Oh, let me be a joyful thing
  Surely, sweetly blossoming.

  The almond tree outside my door, where almond never bloomed before,
    Is unaware that it should die so lifts it's tender branches high.
  Here in this northern early spring my almond tree is blossoming,
    And though the frosts may strike it low, the joy it leaves will spread and grow.

Creature or human...

  In deep December's harshest storm as I clung to my fireside warm,
    I saw a red bird light the white and awesome cold with flame in flight.
  Although his brothers all had fled I cherish still that cardinal's red,
    And hold it to my shivering heart when my world seems to fall apart.

Creature or human...

  The time may seem absurd to some, but I'll know when my moment's come.
    If it is now my hour to sing then sing I will. The greater thing
  Is not to have the fairest bloom but just to give yourself the room
    To blossom when it is your time for them your bloom will surely shine.

Creature of human...
