Plum blossoms . . .<\/em><\/p>\n

\"170212_plum_tree_2_600\"<\/em><\/p>\n

. . . are . . .\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

\"170212_plum_tree_600\"<\/em><\/p>\n

. . . bursting open . . . <\/em><\/p>\n

\"170212_plum_blossoms_5_600\"<\/em><\/p>\n

. . . now.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"170115_mejiro_5_450\"<\/em><\/p>\n

White-eyed birds . . . <\/em><\/p>\n

\"170115_mejiro_2_450\"<\/em><\/p>\n

. . . are sucking at the source.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"170210_kawazu_sakura_600\"<\/em><\/p>\n

Cherry petals soon will paint the sky.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"160508_yashio3_600\"<\/em><\/p>\n

The yashio will give us reasons why.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"160508_yashio7_450\"<\/em><\/p>\n

Red-tipped leaves will glisten . . . <\/em><\/p>\n

\"160508_yashio8_600\"<\/em><\/p>\n

. . . like the stars.<\/em><\/p>\n

It’s bound to give your closed-up heart a jar.<\/em><\/p>\n

Open it, pump in that mountain air.<\/em><\/p>\n

Then you’ll see it’s not all so unfair.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"170212_plum_blossoms_7_700\"<\/em><\/p>\n

You can find so much happiness—<\/em>just open your heart—<\/em><\/p>\n

\"170212_red_plum_1_600\"<\/em><\/p>\n

—just live with your heart—<\/em><\/p>\n

\"170212_plum_blossoms_6_450\"<\/em><\/p>\n

—just light up your heart.<\/em><\/p>\n
