Sakura



In the soft Spring breeze
A flurry of pink and white, like snow
Tickling storms fill a still young season
As blossoms invite, and touch the world
Of sight and sense

Breezes of lightened air, dressed heavy with scent
day in blossom, and it fills every thing
with the wonder of nascence.

As if tiny notes on strings of air
Petals make music felt at heart
And every sinew reaches for tenderness
To gather the warm sun, waterous air
And ride the rising tide of life;
to mate the inner desire
And the outward touch as they unfold
And bare to every occurrence of moving air
Blossoms seek as flowers need
The reckoning of an inner seed, a wish
To be like all things that reach to the sky

Translating a cloud



Words on a pillow
Find a language
In need of no translation
Like the timbre of a song
Notes connect the hearer, and in the heard
Can linger, like the fragrance of a rose
On the hand that bends the petal close

Words find the heart within the heart, and pierce
like sunlight through the shell of a seed
Bold messengers faithful to the lips
and bring the spark behind the eyes
to glow, and rise with tender breaths

Words, near splayed hair, and cool linen,
on a pillow as welcome as an oasis,
and as soft as a dream, in warming words
a pillow becomes a cloud
