Levitation: the branches are not often
Seen through the petals early
In the evening, and children
Often play beneath floating snow banks.
Enhanced by florescence and zither,
A glowing wood emerges at night.
Is it any wonder that they are fascinated
With neon after seeing these petals
In Mid-March or April? And when
The children grow up, the girls
In secretary uniforms run out
And into tepid hurricanes
And tornadoes; they let the unmelting
Snow land on their shoulders
And tangle with and in their hair.
Though too far away to hear,
Affected higher-octave
Cries of awe fill the streets
At the almost-end. And the rest?
As for the rest, let them be.
You will know what happens next
If you listen to what the Japanese
Have given the cherry blossom.

Thanks.

Just by posting here you made me read it after a couple of days. I found a mistake. :oops:

I have to rework the second part but if you see anything else, let me know.
