Somei-yoshino (Cerasus ×yedoensis) sakura flowers: Engaku-ji
In a manner befitting to the old Zen temple, the humble cherry blossoms are floating peacefully like thin white clouds in front of the bamboo grove.
The camellia flowers are in bloom as if they were quietly staying close beside this solitary tree to lend a touch of splendor to it. The fresh green leaves and small red flowers of a maple tree are adding the lively colors which make me feel the genuine breath of life in spring.
In the bright sunlight, living things have begun to revive everywhere without knowing a sudden epidemic of human angst and agony in this beautiful season.
Somei-yoshino (Cerasus ×yedoensis) sakura flowers: Engaku-ji
It was only the other day that the first plum blossom heralded the long-awaited arrival of spring. This flowering season always starts unhurriedly and passes by with very hasty steps.
At a dizzying pace, various flowers bloom and fall one after another to fulfill their roles in the mysterious ritual of pollinating.
Sakura blossoms declare the brief peak of spring and then scatter fleetingly like snowflakes falling in the warm spring breeze.
