CHERRY BLOSSOM



This is a story of a man in his late twenties,

Throughout the spring season, each and every morning,

He roams along a avenue of sakura trees,

The light cool breeze rustles the leaves and the birds would be singing,

Some flowers of the cherry blossom were light pink, some white,

Some purely white throwing away a shade of light yellow in the broad daylight.



That man gazes at the sky and then at these flowers,

He gasps and utters in his mind, “She is like the spring sunshine.”

He looks at the ground and recalls,

She has the beauty like those flowers and an everlasting vibrant smile.



Years ago he was considered a person with cold attitude,

But deep inside his heart was a kind gentleman just unable to express his emotions,

Women at his workplace would ignore him, talk behind him and spread rumours that he was rude,

He would talk about his interests, his want for true love and towards it loyalty and devotion,

The colleagues would say he was boring and pretend to have heard him,

He slowly grew distant from then, began finding his comfort zone.



Then entered a woman with a vibrant smile in his life,

Despite the rumours she heard about him she went to talk to him as he sat all alone,

He spoke to her comfortably, but feared if sharing his thoughts and opinions would be alright.



She would hear him out and was delighted with his company while others thought his heart was hard as stone,

She saw the mature and kinder side of his which drove her pain away as she shared with him,

The man heard a knock at the door of his heart which would open for her cause now he loves her,

He gifted her a necklace and apologised for it was not as expensive as those gifts she has dreamed,

For which she smiled and told him a quote, “Some gifts maybe huge, some are small, but the ones that come from heart are the best gifts of all.”

He didn’t know how to react but to admire her.



They both respected each other and love blossomed just like cherry blossom,

Today he was about propose her for marriage in the same avenue of cherry blossom flowers but she proposed him before he could say anything,

Among the cherry blossom trees as the pink flowers fell down the cool breeze blew past their faces, the scenario was wholesome,

He smiled at her and hugged her dearly which made her feel more alive, a moment which felt everlasting,



Their love was as pure as those flowers fluttering in the breeze,

Their love sparkles like the wave of the seas,

Loving the lover more than the gift offered, talking without hesitation,

Being comfortable around whom you love, to cherish the person’s attention,

It will of course take time for you to find your right person, Just wait patiently you will definitely be loved by that someone.
