Haiku 40 Till Haiku 47 Beneath the Sakura Tree

cherry blossoms drift upon the white casket -a fading pink hue --- she scatters his ashes where cherry blossoms bloom -life after life ---- early miscarriage -cherry blossoms wither before leaves bloom - - - my unborn child -cherry blossoms wither too soon - - - cherry blossoms in hues of pink -our baby girl - - - first cherry falls upon melting snowflakes -Spring's blossom --- cherry blossom -i lick fresh sweetness from his lips --- beneath the sakura tree i shape a heart of petals -without you Not for the contest but tnks Susan and friends you are an inspiration

I really enjoy reading your haiku dear Charma-- you definitely are inspired and I have a bunch here that I really liked, especially the last four ones, that last one was so vivid for me... thank you for passing by my poem and how you interpreted it was so beautiful. It can definitely be taken as that way...

Such a powerfully emotional set of lines here. The last one is mind blowing.
