  so many blossoms ... the swan house on the lake still empty    Friends in the Sky talking of old times and yesteryear  sudden suspense ... and here he comes our way  and who might this be?  |
| Dragon Branches  dragon branches - the old park is back to life      鯉の口 大きく開いて 落花飲む koi no kuchi ookiku aite rakka nomu this old carp opens his big mouth to drink petals |
 just a few petals on the old stone walls - Tsuyama castle     a pink cloud hanging from the sky - old castle walls ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: Hiroshige Branches   |
| sudden pain - the chirping of birds behind closed eyes sudden pain - the fragrance of daphne behind closed eyes  |
 getting older - the sad reality of rural Japan  spring sunshine - remembering a friend by the roadside  |
His funeral was in January.
The family graves are right there in the background
of the second photo, behind the breakdown house.
