The Petal Falls Poem by Brian Kilpatrick

The Petal Falls



The petal falls
The colors 
Of the apple blossom 
Rain on the eyes
Hungering for spring
Drinking in the color
Savoring them like 
They had to last forever
The children play
Adding to the  choir
That is already spring  

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
I remember the apple blossoms
From my 5th grade class room
It was the most beautiful spring

Brian Kilpatrick, brilliant poem, it halts and flows, it pauses and springs, it has the leopards spots and yet it hunts like the tiger. superb.
