With gentle beauty, /

Peony, the eye of love, /

“Too soon”

Too soon

The birds or the breeze, /

the rain or maybe the sun, /

picked berries too soon.

“Ripening”

Ripening

Each green blueberry /

a process of ripening /

timelessness into taste.

“Folded beauty”

Folded beauty

The folded beauty /

Of fading flower petals /

Ends not Spring’s bloom.
