Cherry Tree


There’s a pink goddess outside my window 

Her dark strong arms stretch up high into the sky 

Blossoms adorn her many limbs

Proud, gentle and pink 

She does not hide her beauty

For she knows it will soon fade

The winds of change come 

And her pink blossoms rain down

Covering the ground with pink snow 

Soon she will be blossom bare 

But bright green leaves will take their place 

And she will become summer’s green goddess outside my window.

  1. Beautiful Goddess and so is your poem. We’ll be in Eugene in June! We’re going to a wedding in Belllingham and then driving to Eugene! I’d love to see you.
