a lone lily

a lone lilly
in my garden
is a testimony
to the tears
that irrigated
all the cherries
that are blooming now
far away
around a lake
where i had walked
when all the trees were in bloom
but now a lone lilly
is quietly
helping me
sustain my hope
that other seedlings
will not grudge its bloom
