I dangle like the Willow tree
Few of leaf and spiralling
The dance of the finalists
Caught in Winter sneeze.
So much beauty holds on
Asters like gold buttons
Scarlet hollyhock flower
So swished by rain drops.
Of Purple leaf cherry plum
Bringing Spring’s first blossom
Branches brushed in white
Against a colbalt cold sky.

Purple leaf cherry plum tree.
Ornamental; has a few inedible fruits in Summer, Autumn.
Grows prolifically even when over fifty years old.
Prune hard every year or two.
