Choka sonnet for M'lady Debileah

 

 

 

Enraptured

 

nature’s beauty show.

near Tokyo in the spring

guaranteed to please.

avenues of cherry trees.

soft spring breezes blow

setting pink blossoms dancing

 on the cherry trees

their sweet perfumes they release.

lovers stroll below

unaware completely free

to just wander to and fro.

all that they can see

 their own private paradise

where the blossom never dies,

Beautiful, i smelled the freshness and peacefulness. This write is so light and fragile with it's fine, refined composition that I hardly felt the floor under my feet! Great! ;)

This is beautiful, my son was stationed in Japan when in the Marine's and he loved it there. Thank you for sharing. Debileah

Very nice. I get the feel and of the asian culture and the romance of the orient. You can feel yourself there, breeze, petals flying around, lovers smiling... I love this peice.
