Life and Death
We are like cherry blossom,
Destined to have a brief fleeting life,
...
Life Reborn
We humans are like daffodils,
We put on a brief glorious show,
...
Snowdrops
Snowdrops in full bloom,
Winter in full retreat,
...
Buds, Berries and Birds
From the bud comes the flowers,
From the flower comes the berries,
...
Non sibi sed patriae
For country not self,
Such was my duty,
...
Igni renatus
Born again in fire,
Like the phoenix,
...
