Fluffy and Fruity

Meow, it is date of month when I and mom, sometimes dad as well, visit “Arles”. However, it is closed on Tuesdays — as our horsey riding club. That was why we got on Ms. Moon to see artistic sweets there yesterday. Do you kind 527 followers wonder where Ms. Scarlet is? She is under periodic inspection right now, required by regulations. The former silver lady would help us for 2 weeks.

A weather forecaster recently said that 2025 染井吉野 cherry bloomed as usual, yet took longer toward full blossom thanks to chill, snowy days. Shin, Mikan-chan and Mei-Shun therefore enjoyed them on 2 weekends while the husband repaired a flowerless tree indoors to hang coats. The wife is happy to clean up his study floor occupied by a pile of shirts and bags.

Momo-chan, your flower shape resembles Ms. White. She is a lovely gift from a cherry tree behind a clinic Mei-Shun goes to see Dr. I, her home dermatologist. Allergy between clavicles still prevents her from putting on kimono — meaning kabuki dance lesson. That reminds her of recent news featuring actor 尾上菊五郎, or previous 菊之助 and our master 菊ノ上扇舎.

From Light to Bright

Standard

I and mom went out this morning to see Mr. Danone Caesar, purr. Our 2nd club who accommodates him has a lot of cherry trees around field and beside; some were already over, others still in blossom. Petals fall onto us like snow in pink gradation, might let us feel like flying upward. By the way, she was so careless that left your cookie at home on a table. I would say sorry on behalf of her.

Pretty Pink

Standard

Mikan-chan and Mei-Shun found peach trees in a queue, along a lane toward Tsukuba horsey riding club. The latter driver of Ms. Scarlet saw them bloom as heading there, yet gave up photos because they are on her left side. After enjoying dance with Mr. Marumorita, here they are just on the right. Be careful not to involve cars pass by, watch traffic light.

Glossy Green

Mei-Shun recently noticed that “Clair de Lune” composed by Master C. Debussy has the same melody in soprano and bass keys of 2 bars on the 2nd page. This beautiful score consists of chords and single notes at a ratio of 5 : 1, requires all 10 fingers to move through 6 pages. When her ears catch something weird, either of little ones tends to press wrong place.

Sakura, Sakura

Standard

Shin and Mei-Shun walked to the nearest shrine on weekend, accompanied by Mikan-chan of course. Lovely wild flowers greeted them along a lane between rice paddy, while cherry trees after they climbed steep steps leading to the main building. Almost in full blossom, these flowers gently watched over above couple who drew omikuji lots. The husband saw 吉=lucky, the wife 小吉=a little lucky.

Sweet Sakura

We have 清明=seimei, 5th of spring and whole 二十四節気. It means atmosphere around me, dad and mom turns into clear and flowery, just like today — rain continued for a few days finally stopped, blue sky appears embracing warm sunshine, purr. Mom drove Ms. Scarlet toward Tsukuba horsey riding club, danced with Mr. Marumorita. She found nice numbers at home, took grand pleasure in dad’s souvenir from 函館.

Rainfall again, and Mei-Shun sits on a chair in front of Ms. Piano. She has got quite used to “Kanon” composed by Master J. Pachelbel. This great score gives her another pleasure: “Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring” by Master J. S. Bach has become easier. The former let her calm down, listen to and enjoy beauty of chord. Oh, 6th crescent, happy to see you in northwestern sky after dark.

Train Tour

Standard

Rainfall from yesterday let Mei-Shun visit a hair salon nearby Tokyo Station. She went there one day before birthday, therefore might have kept her head a bit too heavy. Spring sights, nice treatment, shopping at a department store, all gave her relaxation both in body and mind. By the way, why does a group of buffs take photos on the next platform? Is this a rare car?
