Sakura, oh sakuranbo!

Velvet soft pink petals, the touch of pink clouds in the sky

A loving heart of centred black, beating strongly, with every breath of wind

Twisting, bending, swirling, dipping, spinning, dancing arms of Geisha

Wrapping, encircling, themselves around tiny clusters of the palest pink imaginable

A mother’s protective arms, comforting her beautiful daughters of nature

A breeze ruffles the wings of these butterfly blossoms, ready to lift them onto the wind’s white back and carry them away

Ready to burst into budding bloom, to explode with life, and all that is living

To float upon the gentle breeze, the gentle air, the gentle ocean of the sky above

To spin, gracefully, beautifully, across the great blue void of the sky
And flit, dartingly, chantingly as the seasons, across the great blue of beyond

And into the waiting arms, of Mother Nature herself

The sweet, sugary, tang of oriental spice and flavour

The flavour of, life, love, like, grace, poise, discipline, and exceptional beauty

This is the art, of the Sakura and Sakuranbo of Japan

The Cherry Blossom Tree, the Sakuranbo
The Cherry Blossom itself, the heart of it all, the Sakura...
