Cherry Blossom

Tiny pink flowers
hanami* for all  insects ....
bouquet of senses


* japanese for the age old practice of picnicking under the ume (cherry blossom tree)

Wow, I am quite impressed with your knowledge my friend! I have never heard of hanami before! Your skillful writing is done very exquisitely Seren! My favorite line however, has to be the last one, "bouquet of senses" this says a lot in such a short line! I loved your poem here, you have done masterfully with this piece, Great Work!!
