Cherry Blossom
Diving into its soft snowflake petals
Clouds of spring beauty into which to delve
Glorious displays of blancmange aplenty
Taking each space that might be empty
Filling our hearts with tenderness and calm
A soft, light cushion protecting from harm
A stunning bursting glorious energy
Marks the peak of this season with a sensory . . .
Explosion for the windows to the soul
Absorbing its depth and making us whole
Overpowering all that is dark
Revelling in the gentleness, contrast stark
Stop and enjoy the stillness and calm
Of what the earth offers as healing balm
