Cherry blossoms in Brooklyn

Cherry blossoms in Brooklyn
 
Black birds perched on thin black lines
sing to sounds of sakahachi flute
crooked branches trembling
reach out to endless skies

pink with blossom that fall like snow
Portraits of wet blackened trunks
under a carpet of soft white pink
against a chilled  blue grey sky

Angle rays dance through
the delicate flowers that hang on
to branches done with brush
against the liquid moon
