Blossom, Sakura Poem by Kevin Wang

Waiting
For something grow
Stopping
For each day to watch

With dewdrops hanging by its tips
Her arms close in to gather
With hope gaining on each root
She comes closer

Gaining by each second
Journeying along this written path
Flying through the painted skies
That of which the blessed painters gave

Feathered clouds forming into her wings
Growing with the nature of her blooming
As walking along this cushioned road
She’s closer

The creation of blossoming
As her extreme beauty petrifies
Those among her path
An affection grows
On her soft touch
Opening the beauty of flowers
Into rebirth
Into spring

Closer
And closer
Comes and goes
With cherry blossoms
Flying behind at its wake

And you’ll know
It’d be but only
Blossom
Other known as
Sakura

And here
She is
now
