I walk 100 meters to the nearby convenient store
with my tottering steps in an early morning

Cherry blossoms are overblown.
Gorgeous whiteness of abundant thunberg spireas.
Graceful red purple of magnolias.
Flowering buds of a dogwoods.
Yellowish green of maple leaves.
Light gold of primeroses mixed in the shrub thicket.
Lovable white of spring starflowers fringing the corner of a parking lot.

Back to my home shut tightly by concrete,
Strong fragrance of lavender in a pot is filling the rooms.
