It goes by quick.
On Monday I went for a bike ride, and saw the most amazing tree. Two trees, acually, just full with puffy blossoms. One tree was almost white, and the other was light pink. A bird - a mocking bird - was sitting across from this tree and, as far as I could see, declaiming the beaty of that moment. I pulled over my bike and tarried there a while.
Today, when I drove by it, it was gone. All the petals had fallen, and were lying in drifts against the tree and on the pavement.
