Found In The Wild Cherry Blossoms

Of our hearts.

There was a sweet
soft melody
that played on
in our dreams
when music was
the food of love
until it drowned
only to wash up
on the shore
when you found me
in the wild

In the wild
wild cherry
wild cherry cherry
blossoms
blossoming
wildly in
in the wild
wilderness

So intoxicating
and healing
in High Park —
the heart of the city —
tracing places,
scents and senses
never stolen
only lost
to be
found in the wild cherry blossoms
of our hearts.
