Loveliest of trees, the cherry now
Is hung with bloom along the bough
And stands about the woodland rise
Wearing white for Eastertide.

Welcome Spring - 27
Our photo today - taken just outside Little Stretton, reminds me of a lovely verse taken from the poem 'From Clee to heaven the beacon burns' by A E Houseman. This forms part of 'The Shropshire Lad'.
Loveliest of trees, the cherry now
Is hung with bloom along the bough
And stands about the woodland rise
Wearing white for Eastertide.
