Cherry Blossom {a poem in time}

I love Cherry Blossom trees. How can one not. I think they are one of the saddest, most beautiful looking things ever. 

Also called `Sakura' they even have a celebration around them in Japan called Hanami. 

While in China it represents femininity, power, innocence and sexuality; in Japan it is a symbol of transience and fragility of life. It's short beautiful bloom has inspired many poets and artists. And lovers and dreamers.... 

“My heart that was rapt away by the wild cherry blossoms - will it return to my body when they scatter?” - Anon

"Could I die under a cherry blossom tree in full bloom on a full-
moon night of spring?" - Saigyo

My cherry blossom inspired art and something I wrote - 

Behind the purple clouds when the sun begins to set

and the smell of winter is everywhere

I sit outside and stare long.

Between the branches and the fruit

of the cherry blossom tree 

I try and catch a glimpse

of fast fading light

and quickly hiding birds

I hum a song I used to know

half forgotten half lost

and then

I miss you....

I miss you a lot.
