Green of the trees in their prime and the bright lime green grass

The blueberries of a striking cobalt and the sky of the lightest blue.

And finally, the eye-catching  purple of the lilacs and foxglove.

    I see buds on the trees,

    Slowly filling up the buckets,
    Maple boiling,
    Until at last,
    Sugar,
    Slow moving,
    delicious,
    dropping onto your pancakes,
