love everything

when it happens to me
that’s all that I see
like an arm of a tree
growing carefree, innocently

pruned.

when it happens for me
that’s all that I see
like an arm of a tree
growing carefree, innocently

pruned.

then it happens to be
this love sets it free
like the spring cherry tree
raining carefree, innocently

bloomed.


Inspiration: In the practice of loving everything, the “to me” blossoms into “for me”. May the raining blooms save all.
