Not To Differentiate

I do not want to differentiate
the rose from the cherry
because they both have 
colorful images.....

I do not want to differentiate
the USA from Japan
because they  both have 
same glamour and flavour.....

I do not want to differentiate 
the snowfall from the rain
because snowfall is 
a type of raining......

I do not want to differentiate 
Okinawa from Hawaii
because Okinawa is
the Hawaii of Japan......
