Today is Cherry Blossom's Day " 27 March " , blessing.
The cherry blossoms bloom basically from the last week of March to the beginning week of April.
It is about 1 week from flowering to falling.
The opening changes by the climate of the year.
Southland blooms a little earlier from the middle of March. North has a place to bloom until the beginning of May.
It is only several days in the chance of the photograph.
Short flowering periods think me to be the cause why cherry blossoms are loved.
The human being is born and must do pass away immediately.
The people of my country may superimpose it on one's fate.
This "one" week is covered in the Far East most happily in year.
We are waiting for the day with you all.
世の中に絶えて桜のなかりせば 春の心はのどけからまし
If there are not cherry blossoms at all in the world, the heart of the spring will be quiet leisurely.
(The feeling that cherry blossoms are impatient for is expressed ironically.)
