Such a serene mood this image creates for the reader, Charles. Very much enjoyed the uplifting feeling. I have seen murals in Oriental restaurants that are quite lovely, but none with the cherry blossoms. Beautifully written! Love, Carolyn

charles, this reminds me of the very first haiku I wrote in jr. high. Pink cherry blossoms/cast shimmering reflections/on seas of japan. Well, at least we had the same country!! And thanks for the explanation on your rule!
