The Spring Wind

Soliloquy no Renga: The Spring Wind

such a malice
cherry blossoms in full bloom
the Spring wind!
© Chèvrefeuille

as wind blows it will surely
leave some blossoms behind

the falling blossoms
in a delicate drizzle
on folks holding hands

leisurely strolls a given
under cherry blossoms in spring wind

mist in the gorge settles over

turning leaves

running water, rustle through trees

birds in symphony

the music of nature
