Cherry Blossoms Fall
The years have not passed without notice. Each moment was vital in its own way, left its mark in its own way, even if the memories of those moments have dimmed with time.
April breeze
cherry blossoms fall
life goes on
This haibun is my response to Haibun Monday 3-28-22: Cherry Blossoms,
the prompt from Frank Tassone at dVerse ~ Poets Pub.

Thank you, David. There are so many things that I don’t want to miss out on. So yes… keep on keeping on.

So true, Ken.
The haiku seems written for me (and the world)–my mom died in April two years ago in the first Covid wave. Our white cat died earlier that same April week. The spring trees were in full bloom. 💙

Thank you, Merril. My thought here was that the cherry blossom is a sign of life, even as it dies. And, I did think about those we’ve lost, even as we go on. ❤
