March 9, 2024 : Time to Bloom
© 安岡喜晴 (JoyShine)
After I woke up, I went to a ramen shop where I usually go.
On my way home from there, I saw a cherry blossom blooming at the intersection of Horikawa Takatsuji.
I wonder why cherry blossoms attract so many people.
Some poets say that cherry blossoms are so attractive because they don't bloom for so long, but I think not many flowers bloom for so long.
So there must be other reasons.
My answer is that cherry blossoms attract many people because they have many meanings in just one tree.
I remember that Japan once sent many cherry blossoms to the United States because of their relationship.
Cherry blossoms are not only with their beauty and attractiveness, but also with the trademark of affection for others from the long past.
