NaPoWriMo 2014 Day 5: Blossom

It has been quite a mild winter in the UK and with the sunlight it has brought out the blossom a lot earlier than usual. From the window of the community gym I go to there is a fantastic tree blooming with rich red.


Blossom


Not every ghost is there to warn or haunt us.

See how these play in the newborn sunlight,

speak of when winter couldn't clog your lungs.


Let them invigorate your dormant mysteries.

Escape from the shade of the new moon

to join and share your resplendent beauty.


This dance upon the branches is brief, so

inspire and do not resent the fatal wind.

Live within dreams of the following spring.
