Cherry Blossoms

In the beautiful sunlight
These jewels shine bright.
How wonderful to see
Their radiant beauty.
They smile and dance
The performance of these plants.
Watching them makes me smile
Memories that had been forgotten for a while.
The giggling, the grinning, all coming back to my head.
“These were there,“ my mother had said.
The sun had already gone to sleep,
Then, the moon started to peep
Into the night sky,
The little jewels waved goodbye.
When I went to bed
I secretly said,
“Goodbye, little flowers, goodbye,
Sleep in peace watching the diamond sky."
