This is my springtime celebration. 
I stood under our plum tree and photographed it. 
I felt the sheer beauty of the tree, its blossoms, its unpredictable branches 
and
 I understood why 
gnenerations of artists in Japan and China have painted this subject. 
In the midst of our war filled planet, and my militarized country,
 I was grateful that I could pause for a moment 
to immerse myself in this tree.
