The cherry in a moment of ecstasy Awakened me to presences divine And the hidden truth of life's divinity Of which all Nature is the living sign.
Although the radiance of blossoms brief The light within their petals outlasts time And now I see perfection in a leaf And earth to godlike vision known sublime.
The plenitudes of heaven here descend, Miraculous we walk in fields of light, The darkness in our natures doomed to end As is the lonely reign of death and night.
For now a sound within the silence stirs, The heavens and the earth claimed duly Hers.
