Notes About The Poem

Sakura


blooms of pinks and white
blanket the painted canvas
drawing all who pass
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
the cherry blossom,
beauty but a breath in time,
life's foreshadowing

Love the pic and the haiku, FJ. The first one reminds me of once upon a time when I was visiting Washington, D.C. and saw the cherry trees in full bloom...and all their splendor.
