Troiku Hineri – Apple Blossoms

Carpe Diem Weekend Meditation #67 Troiku Hineri: Apple Blossoms

light carried in my arms
apple blossoms from a neighbor
on my doorstep

clusters talking
together in admiration
apple blossoms

sun transformed
into apple blossoms
the ground is level

the dam is broken
spring cascades into valleys
as apple blossoms

my doorstep adorned
cascading apple blossoms
dance in the sunlight

 “Troiku Hineri”

my doorstep adorned
cascading apple blossoms
dance in the sunlight

my doorstep adorned
my feet bathed in pink petals
kissed in softness

cascading apple blossoms
alight on my shoulder
spreading perfume

dance in the sunlight
partnered with the breeze
twirling dizzily

my doorstep adorned
sunlight and blossoms
waltz into the house

my feet bathed in pink petals
scattered with each bouncing step
emotions surge

kissed in softness
dapple light shadows
chase away winter

cascading apple blossoms
shower the bare garden
in hues of pink

alight on my shoulder
spirits of the springtime
carry me forward

spreading perfume
the breeze tickles my senses
floating along

dance in the sunlight
warmth bathing my soul
tears of joy

partnered with the breeze
hair flying wildly
racing toward your arms

twirling dizzily
your embraces dispels
ache of your absence
