Happiness in spring

Happiness reminds me of spring

All can seem beautiful and warm

Till an unpredictable storm hits 

Then all seems to flood 

And wash away 

When the spring begins 

The cherry blossoms will bloom

The beauty is short 

Once spring ends and petals fall

All of that beauty, all gone 

It all can seem gray 

It can feel like a fisherman sitting on a bank 

Never catching anything 

Just hopefully waiting 

Do I have to wait for spring to begin?

Will it go away when spring ends?

The poem is about how happiness can be compared to spring. I was inspired to write this after reading a Miyazawa Kenji poem.
