Cherry Blossoms
Oh! Pristine white blossoms
Harbinger of joy awesome
The trees happily you carry
Your touch light, causing them no worry
The leaves green from behind you peep
Awakening from their long wintry sleep
The sun’s tender rays
Caress your beautiful face
Bringing on them a pink flush
That vies with the maiden’s blush.
You paint the canvas white
Making splashes of yellow, red and blue bright
The lovers find bliss under your shade
Their pangs of separation on long winter nights fade
The little time you are on this earth
You spread peace, love and mirth
May we be worthy to greet you year after year
And keep safe for you the Nature dear.
