Loveliest of trees, the cherry now

Loveliest of trees, the cherry now
Reference:
These lines have been taken from “loveliest if trees the cherry now”wriiten by A.E.housman”
CONTEXT:
The poet is attracted by the beauty of the cherry tree. He wants to enjoy it to the full. But the regrets that the early twenty years of hid life that he has already spent in this world would never come back. He can live hardly for fifty years are too short a period to enjoy the beauty of this loveliest tree. So he decided not waste even a single moment of his life. He will visit the woodland as many times as he can and enjoy its beauty.
Explanation:
The Poet sees a cherry tree growing on theBank of the path of a woodland. He is much impressed by its beauty and calls it the loveliest of the trees. The branches of the tree are laden with flowers and are covered with snow. It seems as if it has worn this white dress to celebrate the Christian festival of Easter –the day when Christ was resurrected
