Meaning of the line in may, the crystallized sunbeams burst out for all to see
Answers
Answer:
Just down the road from where I live
A lone laburnum tree grows.
It does not advertise itself,
Unlike the cawing crows.
But like the cawing crows, you'd say
There's nothing to this tree-
Its height is unremarkable,
It lives so ordinary.
But come the summer, golden light
Is trapped within the tree.
In May, the crystallized sunbeams,
Burst out for all to see.
