My Aging Cherry

My aging cherry

Bursts forth her blossoms once more

Spring is in the air

My mind drifts away

To memories of glory

In the good old days

Comparing is sad

If only things didn’t change

And you were still here

My heart brings me back

Life is what’s happening now

Peace in every breath

You can’t see or touch

And yet you know that it’s real

Love is forever
