So this weekend, [livejournal.com profile] janni gave me a poem challenge.

    The cherry petals
linger on as if to say,
    "Can't you enjoy spring
without lamenting over
how we'll scatter tomorrow?"


This was ... eye-openingly easy to write. It is entirely possible that I've been reading/translating too much Japanese poetry too quickly. That or I need to mix it up with more comic verse.

ETA a better word.
