When I've heard the lines, "Longing of the branches to lift the little bud," there was always something familiar to it. Recently, I came across the Dylan Thomas line "The force that through the green fuse drives the flower." And, yes, there is also a reference to blood in the poem. Here is the poem in its entirety.
