When Cherry Trees Blossom

October 14, 2024 "EDITOR'S CHOICE" You always loved me only in the spring while cherries blossom in our neighborhood and I only heard about it when the newspaper published in the news that the first Herzegovinian Cherries traditionally used to be displayed on Viennese tables by color and size in other seasons there were no identifiable signs of your love I searched for you between the buds of cherries sought you in the blossoming of other fruit and in the flowers but have not found even the slightest trace of your love I am afraid the cherry-tree will stop blossoming and the distinctive symbols of identification on the Viennese tables will disappear I am afraid You will never love me in some other blossoming © IBRAHIM HONJO Vancouver, BC
