up ahead, someone
will be at home
spring morning

up ahead, someone
will be at home
spring morning

Morning haze
hides blossoms from the wind
too completely

and water flowing silently,
daylight fading

Springtime rain!
Almost dark, and yet
today still lingers

walking on, walking on
accompanying memories – springtime,
where have you gone to?

In a world
of lies – why not blossoms
that don’t fall?

blossoms scatter
never knowing
our regrets

Morning haze
jewels of rain, falling
in a dream

traveling geese
the city park is home

submitted in response to Paula’s Thursday Color Challenge: park
overwhelming
my memory
blossoms at dusk

so quiet one can hear
blossoms fall
