Hi, great to see you, cute tabby. You stay too distant from Mei-Shun to recognize your gender, yet either would be all right. Do you know our garden girl? She puts on a coat like yours, so friendly that rushes to anyone of our family just after they come outdoors. Oh, please do not try to climb Mei-Shun toward her arms. She must avoid bringing your scent to Mikan-chan, her indoor princess.
On you two whites, Vanilla-san and Maria-chan. Mei-Shun was so exhausted to clean up following saddle pad in blue that she decided to purchase another in their color or beige. Although they do not perspire much these days, change from winter coat to spring one is still going on. It is fun to take care of horseies and riding equipments, yet she has many other to enjoy with Mikan-chan treatment on the top of her list.
It really comes from our garden princess Momo-chan (=Ms. Peach). Mei-Shun felt something soothes her mind one morning, took a deep breath at a flower of this gorgeous friend. Oh, how beautiful you are while merciful! Thanks a million to make her mind energized. All the same kindness does Grand Momo-chan have in mom’s garden, surrounded by 4 “Little Women”.
Mothers of Mei-Shun and Momo-chan
Mei-Shun is energized to receive a tentative program from Master 坂東=Bando on her party’s performance in April, Tokyo. The former has rarely seen other dancers in full makeup, wigs and costumes on stage so far. Another happiness comes from Prof. M who joined 菊ノ上流 a few years ago. He recently asked Mei-Shun to become his new tutor in Japanese dance taking over Master Mei-Shu’s business.
Meow, this is my best seat, only when I feel hungry and see Ms. Mei-Shun. I like her who always gives me a treat. She also knows how to get along with me — never interferes to touch my sleepy paw pads. However, there are some dare do it here, hiss! Be polite, are you pleased when a stranger touch your sole while asleep? Just go ahead and play with my mammoth friends.

One of Mei-Shun’s dream here is to gallop with you, honey. Oh-no-no, you are a cotton candy while Miro, a half-bred boy privately owned should take that name. If you two share a field going around to the orgel-tuned music they always air, it will make a real attraction. And Vanilla-san, could you lead them completing this sweetest and hottest dessert hard to control?
Maria, La Belle
Hello, 狛犬=koma-inu guardians. Their names are “阿”=a and “吽”=n, meaning breathing out and in to pronounce respectively. Mei-Shun greets the former before giving a prayer — oh? Who is this, taking a rest on阿’s cheek? Maybe you two are playing a hide-and-seek, closely resemble each other. All right, she would bring omikuji lots to lonely吽 and read them with him/her.
Hi friend, somehow resemble Tora-chan who is generous enough to feed you. Oh, you might be her niece (or nephew) whom Mei-Shun called Alto. When you were a tiny kitten, your aunt let you stay a few nights at her bed with dinner. Was that you? Well grown-up, well done. Thanks for your gentle meowing. Please help yourself, we would serve more crisps for you two.

It seems to Mei-Shun that Japanese dance and horseback riding share much. For example, her lower body needs to be very stable while upper including arms and shoulders flexible enough. She might have learned how to do so in gallop lessons with Vanilla-san, feels so happy. Another target is comfortable rein handling in trot with blackish-brown Madoka-chan and snow-white Maria.
It is a day to express Mei-Shun’s gratitude to her family and friends. In her memory, when she stayed in Cheltenham, U.K., her host mother Clair gave Bill, her partner a humorous card only. No sweets were exchanged between couples there. Some say Japanese custom is a kind of conspiracy by confectionary companies, yet it seems all right. Such a small gift always warms up your heart, doesn’t it?
