The Cherry Petals

The cherry petals fall like soft new snow.

White five star petals against dark trees.

The petals float in the wind’s gentle blow.

The pinkish cherry petals are not faux.

Being pollinated by busy bees.

The cherry petals fall like soft new snow.

More flowers bloom as the trees start to grow.

Smelling fragrances, sitting on my knees.

The petals float in the wind’s gentle blow.

I wave at the birds as I say hello.

The birds answer back in many high keys.

The cherry petals fall like soft new snow.

Pinkish petals shine in the sun’s bright glow.

The precious flowers dance in the soft breeze.

The petals float in the wind’s gentle blow.

Closing my eyes, my troubles are let go.

Under the falling petals, I am at ease.

The cherry petals fall like soft new snow.

The petals float in the wind’s gentle blow.
