Beginning, for Ese's Weekly shot and quote challenge

Good day dear visitors,

It's really a joy to publish another post here at my base haiku-blog. I ran into a wonderful challenge to day which I love to share with you all and which I had to take. I like challenges so
Ese's Weekly shot and quote challenge, Beginning I love to try. It's the goal to use a photo and a quote to write a poem, to me of course, that will be haiku.

As I have it right this is the quote which belongs to the photo I love to use:

Everything is still ahead…

 
Well ... let me try it ... here it goes my first attempt for Ese's new challenge:

new beginnings
everything is still ahead -
cherry blossoms bloom

cherry blossoms bloom
finally spring has conquered winter
a new light rises

a new light rises
cherry blossoms fall silently
at last cherries

at last cherries
bare branches will bloom again -
new beginnings

I hope you like this cascading haiku ...  and I think I have touched the quote and have used the photo in a right way. So if you like it or dislike it ... please let me know.

Namaste
