first cherry blossom

Carpe Diem #578, 

Hatsu Hana (March 2013)

We are on a journey along memory-lane and today we have a prompt from March 2013, Hatsu Hana (The First Cherry Blossom), it's a classical kigo (seasonword) for spring and in March 2013 we had all prompts based on classical kigo for spring. I will give you a little excerpt of that episode here:

[...] Those little fragile first cherry blossom ... every Spring again it's a joy to see that those bare branches of the Cherry Tree are becoming a sea of flowers. It's really a feast. [...]
