The Cherry Blossom – a haiku

I dream of pink trees

And petals shed on green grass

Soft shades of the earth

The Sisterhood

Tags

, , , , ,

You told me you’re not doing well
You’re tired and confused
Your body keeps on fighting you
But I won’t let you lose

I’ll fight the battle with you
I’ll never let you down
You’ll always be the queen to me
You’ll always wear the crown

You mean the world to me
The sisterhood will never perish
No one can ever break the pact
It’s your friendship I’ll always cherish

Mistakes

Tags

, , , , , ,

A lost love, a broken heart
You walked away, I fell apart

Our time together, went quickly by
Not even a chance, for one more try

I clutch your picture to my chest, I cannot look away
I don’t remember what I did, to make you go that day

You had your moments, I had mine too
You blamed me, I blamed you

I guess it’s best, to say goodbye
There is no point, in living a lie

A lesson profound, one I cannot forsake
I live and learn, from my own mistake

Sunday

Tags

, , , , ,

The warmth of the sun
The sweet morning air
A day to be lazy
With nary a care

We rise from our beds
We stretch and we yawn
And find ourselves lost
In a glorious dawn

And thank the good Lord
For allowing us to see
Another beautiful Sunday
Made for you and for me

Amazement

Tags

, , , , , , ,

The glow of the moon
The warmth of the sun
A little boy’s laughter
The thrill as he runs

The blowing of wind
The falling of leaves
The blossom of flowers
The budding of trees

An elderly couple
Who walk hand in hand
The sound of the ocean
The feel of the sand

The colors of a rainbow
The grass on the lawn
A sign of new hope
A doe with her fawn

The song of a robin
The coo of a dove
All the bird’s sharing
Their sermon of love

The buzz of a bee
The fresh morning dew
All of God’s splendor
Is waiting for you
