Yushoku Spring
Delicate cherry blossoms, and the young-green bamboo, create a subtle spring- taste enhanced by the plum,
camellia, and chrysanthemum flowers of early, mid and late season. The variety of plants demonstrates that spring is not just one month or one flower. In addition, the Imperial Family is called to mind by the carts
in the background.
The rectangular shapes in the foreground are poem papers used for writing poetry in one's best calligraphy. The beautiful patterns on the paper enhance the overall presentation of the
poem.
Spring is the time for planting rice, putting seed in the ground and forming sprouts and roots.
In the same way, childhood is the time of formation for the person. After birth we start to be interested in the world and our ideas about the world and life begin to take shape. It is a time of energy and learning.
