Shimokini The Abendrot Poet Poet Free verse

Taxi That's Going Nowhere

With the snow ceasing
Nestled between the beds of sakura petals
With a taxi that’s going nowhere
Nowhere to take shelter
Nowhere with open borders
Turned away
Right at the doorstep
There’s no home now
And there’s no
Place for them to visit
No home to go back to 
As the sakura blooms into spring
The snow falls
Freezing spring in its wake
The driver stops
To the wave of my hand
Its red lights glowing in the dark
Of a spring wonderland
I don’t know where I’m going
All I know is that I’m going somewhere
Grasping onto the
Last few petals of hope
In my palm
Crescent moons embedded onto my skin
