The sakura, or Japanese cherry blossoms,
Remind us that life is short and beautiful.
Buds and blossoms thrive
On the same branch – and so can we if we really try.
The pink froth of the petals
Reminds us that time and blossoms are fleeting, fragile and fabulous.

They are the embodiment of our best moments, fleeting but the most precious.

So beautiful, Fi, making me want to post something about my ornamental crabapple trees. I’m not the photographer you are, but I’m enthusiastic about Spring… March winds and April showers are certainly bringing forth May flowers.
