They’re cheery! Awesome! Those cherry blossoms
Mosaic of pastel-tinged flotsam
The palest pink the creamy whites
In bursting clusters, such delights!
When tree is full, spectacular
No word in our vernacular
Can capture quite the sheer display
Of beauty in their graceful way
Across the world, these hardy trees
Can slumber through the cold with ease
And when the warming rays of spring
Stir verdant buds and birds to sing
That pageantry when stands together
A blush of trees - oh what a treasure!
Against a sky of baby blue
Ethereal, that rosy hue
The lace-filled boughs, bloomed filigree
We’re awed by splendid scenery
Majestic foliage worn like crown
Yet jeweled petals soon dust the ground
For winsomeness of spring is fleeting
Inspired peak is soon retreating
What efflorescence in creating
Priceless is a year’s worth waiting…
