A Loop Poem Entry

Celebration of Life

by June Sargent

Early in the spring we are blessed
Blessed with her fragrance and beauty
Beauty that reminds us life is short
Short and filled with routine and duty
Duty should include some reflection
Reflection upon sakura's ability
Ability to revive and bloom freely
Freely despite life's fragility
Fragility heightens appreciation
Appreciation for life and for sharing
Sharing each moment we treasure
Treasure our loved ones by caring

Sakura, the Japanese name for the cherry tree, is a symbol of beauty, the transcience of life and hope. For a few short weeks in spring, she blooms and blesses us with her luscious pink petals. Then she rests and returns next spring.
