Rural Cherry
I've witnessed more chromatic blooms
Which laurel every day,
More orchards blessing mouths and eyes
Of those who pass their way
Yet still the climate of my land
Forbids the fruit tree's yield,
The Sun too cruel for sweeter things
To flourish in my field
I wilt alone in wooden pew,
My mouth filled up with dirt,
And dream of days where cherry juice
Drips freely down my shirt
