          'Falling'

As the blossoms open,
they 'fall' in a moment
without free choice,
for the world of Spring
exists only as
the sheen of morning dew
on wildflowers.
True lovers though might
also 'fall' in a moment
but one, that by chance
and choice, may last
   forever.

Yes it might last forever at that, Bruce. It is the hope of all who "fall," although many times it isn't the case. Still, we keep trying . . .

Sometimes love outlives even our own memory ... just like the beauty of a Spring meadow in full bloom. We record it within our minds and hearts even on subconscious level.

Beautiful.
