Telepathic Conversation With the Japanese Cherry Blossom

The sun was just rising over the moon as Monday’s gloom fell upon the earth 
I rolled over in my bed and pushed the pillow aside as the sun rays brushed my skin from the open window

As I opened my eyes and looked out the window and saw a sight I had not seen before 

My eyes saw a Japanese Cherry Blossom blooming in the spring

Its beauty seemed to speak to me and say everything was going to be ok

Vibrant colors that gave life to the weak and a strong wavy trunk that gave a voice to those who could not speak

And as I gazed up the tree my mind began to open up to so many new things

Love seemed attainable and money was not a concern

Thoughts did not make us ill and words did not kill

The world spun on genuine joy and the only thing that held weight was trust because gravity didn’t exist 

Just as I was about to reach the top the bottom became higher and my mind woke up

It was just a dream in which I noticed the inspiration I had within me

Life’s new beginning are unlimited

p.s. so I’ll keep dreaming until I don’t wake up….



Something Seemingly Insignificant and Unexpected Changed My Life. 8/21/16

This is really beautiful and with one of the most interesting titles I have seen. There is a softness to your words that pairs so well with the delicate petals of a "Cherry Blossom" tree..and the "life" analogies are wonderfully apropos with a seamless, serene, spiritual feel. Excellent writing...I love this :-) A favourite, 7+..10+ if possible my best to you in the contest blessings, lynn
