Note: The following poem was inspired by the experiences of a friend of mine spending two amazing weeks in Japan during the blooming of Cherry Blossoms.
Cherry Blossoms blooming
All around you
Scent getting stronger
Such beauty is beyond us
Distance matters not
I am always there
I am the whisper in the wind
Speaking softly in your ear
I am all around you
In the swaying of the leaves
In the blooming of the flowers
In the beating of your heart
You tell me that you miss me
I’ve never left your side
I am the Nightingale
Offering you my song
Close your eyes
My love
Feel my presence
Listen to our hearts
Can you see me dancing?
Cherry blossoms falling all around you
Brightly, I am smiling
My eyes revealing love
