The pear tree bears a blossom white,
opening peeping swan-cupped wings,
felt purple hearts, stamens within,
protected from the spring wind's bite.

The pear tree bares a blossom white -
wide petals, freckled with the black
stamens that dusted  bee's furred back -
all clotted cream in gold sunlight.

Wild amber bees, black bumble bees,
those hover flies in bee disguise,
and, wysiwyg - plain honest flies -
all schedule April's nectared trees.

I've been away - long sighs of wheels -
but here, all care pear-blossom steals.
