THE EMERGENCE

Pregnant promises,

Unburst abscesses,

The chrysalis awaits ready,

To burst free

From its silken fetters.

Aglow with hope

And anticipation,

I await,

The emergence

Of the future.

Requiem for a Cherry blossom

Like a cherry blossom,
Beauty ethereal
And ephemeral,
A child
of the golden sun.

Bringing joy and wonder
In the springtime.
Leaving behind,
the gossamer sweetness,
of only a memory.
