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.

Picture one petal' Falling into a sea of pink No splash visible, Far out; on Prairie Moon white silver grass Hot wind apple spiced
