In spring
you
danced strawberry meringues
While cherry blooms glittered
About you
The tree has had to grow old without you
Instead a tiny spot nearby
Under which you lie
Little profound thing
In the big green I lets the tears stream
salute the single magpie
Blossoms
Now falling drops of pain
Why did you get peace
for so many years?
In that one small spot
That yields so many tears?
Will I be brave enough to
Dig up the box
And smile at the reunion
Of little things we shared?
Your tiny fingers
wrapped around ..
my heart still
Beating instead of yours.
