popcorn

No, it's not an apricot tree, but the sight of these blossoms triggered a childhood song. 


I looked out the window
and what did I see?
Popcorn popping 
on the apricot tree.
Spring had brought me
such a nice surprise,
popcorn popping
right before my eyes.

I could take a handful
and make a treat!
A popcorn ball that 
would smell so sweet.
It wasn't really so,
but it seemed to be~
popcorn popping
on the apricot tree.

  1. Interesting... our song just was a plain old popcorn tree.

    1. Wonder if it's the same giddy little tune?
