Soft
white petals dance and swirl against a muted sky
Animated
t'ward the earth where limp and still they lie
They
join together like warm snow, then they disappear
Fulfilling
and fulfilled the purpose which has brought them here
Small
uncommon beauty which small round life inspires
Abandoning
their glory as the forming fruit requires
Selflessly
they dance and fly and frolic in the wind
And
give away their beauty to let life begin again.
