Love, Forest, Cherries


Transcription
My love is a veritable orchard of
cherry blosom trees--no! It is
a wild forest of the same!
I love like the ocean spray when
the rising sun's fire sets it ablaze,
I love like the serenity of gentle
streams tip toeing around napping
algae bedded stones,
I love like the elephant who's shadow
could blot out the sun for entire
savannas, but chooses to remember
deep care instead,
I love like you when you know what
you want, and you show it, and that's
that,
I love like the cherries of the tree
that share the same stem
and whisper heart-secrets in the
cradling night.
