Longer sleepless evenings
Humid, dark, and bleak
Serene and sorrowful homes
Blossoming sakura trees weep
With heavyhearted lonely buds
Spring, unforgettable saddest spring
Trees not lovelier and so are fields
Nor the day more delightful than the evening
These unhappy blooms in pink
Signal a different kind of grief
Sakura  (cherry blossoms) are constantly cited as the most recognizable sign of spring in Japan. When trees all over the country burst into breathtakingly beautiful clusters of pink flowers right about the time it gets warm enough, people  yearly go outside to enjoy. Blooming of the sakura is a beautiful  gift from mother nature, hanami (sakura viewing) is done by many people in spring.  But due to COVID-19 pandemic, parks right now are being closed to avoid more transmission of SARSCoV2.
Years have come
Years have gone
But their memories still lives on
The tears we've shared cannot be compared to what they did

Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust
Their soul has found rest
Inside the grave

Away for good
To place called unknown
Only God knows why
Cause He's the giver of life

Upon that old rugged cross,

Blood streamed from his hands and feet,

The dark nails pierce him and the sky turns black,

Cruel men did mock him and spit in his face,

He endured it all and forgave us our sins,

'Jesus' death paid our sin debt price,

His sinless soul was an offering for sin,

They gave Him a β€˜crown’ of sharp thorns,

He suffered beatings beyond belief,

Such lonely cries He made, from Calvary,

He borne our brokenness and dearly paid the cost,

His scourged back stung and bled and bled,

It is finished! ' the Saviour screamed,

He died for you. He died for me,

The people I believe in
they stopped believing in me,
Of course it's 'cause of my deeds
I think they feel I'm good for nothing

They stopped talking to me
And I started to speak to myself,
Well I know life has to go on
Time won't stop for me

I've gotta get myself together
I've gotta stay strong,
I've gotta move on
I've still gotta believe in me.

But it's all just so hard!

Sometimes just staying strong through the storm can be the most difficult thing to do.

Loving one another is not an easy way to go, sometimes its hard to love because loving hurts us so. But He takes all the pain of suffering and all the tears we've cried, and creates a masterpiece for us to carry deep inside. God makes the shattered pieces of our broken hearts into, the stained glass windows in our soul that lets His light shine through.
Let your light shine!

Lord, bless and protect everyone from corona-virus.
That comes to this here site that is called Hello-poetry.
Help your people to all love one another here O God.
Save us both the middle, leftist, and the right as well.
So that the lost shall see the unity and want to know you.
Loving others is the second greatest commandment there is.
Lord do an work within us all so that we shall come together.
Hear my plea Lord , I pray this in Jesus Worthy Name Amen.
