“Cherry Blossoms”
The cherry blossoms
Coming into bloom
Remind me
That one year has passed
Since you departed
From our view.

I remember last year,
Just after your passing,
How sad I felt to think
That you had just missed
The blossoms --
After the harsh winter snows.

Perhaps in my sorrow --
Too soon to see the meaning –
I missed them
As a sign for us
To celebrate your transition
To the Light.
This year in joy the blossoms
Remind me of your presence
Just below the surface
Of words, time, and events --
Of love rising in union,
A resurrection of sorts.
