The Cherry Tree

Pinned Image
Latter summer fall and winter
You stand ordinary


Pinned Image
Come spring, faithfully, you blossom
And in pink attire, you beautify

Pinned Image
Inhaling slow and deep
I capture your scent
Admire your loveliness

Pinned Image
Your stature like a godess
Your limbs aloof
Your silky petals sacred - too delicate to hold


Pinned Image
Placidly, you flirt
Appeasing obviously
A savage rain
A whirl of biting wind
A fleeting existance toppled


Pinned Image
A bed of pink petals
Blanket the verdant ground


Pinned Image
I lie down in your remnants
