Cherry Blossoms


Andrea Lieberman Collette Flower Earrings, 18 kt gold, diamond, and opals at Broken English.

The weather knocked down the cherry blossoms this weekend; we were to canoe by them but were rained out.  This spring, I saw the blossoms mostly by night.  Fortunately, cherry blossoms glow from within as if they are calling to the moon.  These earrings preserve the blossoms' beauty, glow, and elegance past their too short week of spring.   

Could I die
Under the blossoms
In the second month
Under the full moon?

Last year's April blooms.
