Cherry Blossom

How long will you stay?

Your beauty stirs something deep in me —

a quiet ache, a breathless plea that you might never fade away.

Ten months I count the turning days,

through summer's heat and winter's chill,

through autumn gold and frost-bit still,

my heart caught in a patient haze.

I trace the bare and sleeping bough, and whisper to the frozen air —

come back to me,

bloom soft and fair, as only you know how.

Then spring unlocks the world again,

and there you are — so brief, so bright,

a shower of pink in morning light,

worth every long and longing ten.

So stay a little, if you will.

Let petals linger, slow their fall.

For when you're gone, I'll give it all

just to imagine you here still.
