Symbol of Spring in Tow

This isn't ink — it's blossom breath,  
A message from a paper's depth.  
That this is a blush pink breeze,
Not just a standing tree.
A story that narrates how spring once paused,  
When petals fell without a cause.  
A square of paper telling us,  
Its quiet bloom still speaks to us.  
That nothing lasts forevermore,  
Except the trace this stamp once bore.  
We pressed a petal into ink,  
Reluctant to watch it go.  
Stamped beneath the springtime glow,  
All we remember are memories that flow.  
A fleeting kiss this stamp shall show —  
USPS: Cherry Blossom — symbol of spring in tow.
