Sakura matsuri
さまざまのこと思い出す桜かな
Samazama no koto omoidasu sakura ka na
(Is it a cherry blossom that reminds me of various things?)
- Bashô Matsuo
In Japan, in late March and early April, they celebrate the Sakura matsuri, or cherry blossom festival.
All eyes will be on the light pink florets as they fill the city sidewalks, public parks, and temple gardens with quivering bursts of color in the gentle breeze of early spring. Picnicking under the blossoms is an ancient tradition. Then, all too soon, the petals begin to fall, and the scene becomes a distant memory.
One explanation of Bashô’s haiku is that he is recalling that he abandoned the way of samurai and decided to live the way of haiku. Or simply that cherry blossoms encourage random thoughts.
The sibilant repetition of the “s” and “z” sounds (samazama, omoidasu, sakura). The repeated consonants of “k” (koto, sakura, kana) produce a melodic sound to Bashô’s phrase.
“Do you remember many things?” is today’s colloquial understanding of the phrase.
A more literal translation is, “Various things, they call to mind, ah, cherry blossoms !”

Street portrait from Glasgow, Scotland.
Black and white re-edit of a portrait of Shannon from my '100 Strangers' street portrait project in Glasgow. Stunning in colour, with her green outfit and red hair, there is an entirely different but equally magical quality in black and white. Memories of happier times as we still linger in lockdown.
Stay safe everyone!
I'm an avid reader and I just finished reading my 352cnd book of the year on Saturday-The Memory Police by Yoko Ogawa which is a haunting book (and also a bit of a book within a book) about the nature of memory and humanity both. Here's an NPR review:

Sweet memories of an early summer,
came to me this night.
Like the first time I felt you,
like the first time your eyes melted into mines.
No words needed…
No needed touch…
But two hearts connected
in the infinite dance.
And the wind blew…
And the flowers bloomed…
Calling the dancers to come…
Longing their love to burst.
Gottfried Helnwein transforms Gmunden town hall and city theater into an art installation. It is the municipality of Gmunden and the Salzkammergut Festival. The picture “Memory” by Gottfried Helnwein has been on display at the Gmunden town hall.
"The instrumentalization of children and violence against children must always be addressed anew.” Gottfried Helnwein has used his impressive visual language for decades to achieve this developed. Shockingly beautiful.

Many years ago, my wife and I, we traveled all over Turkey as Backpackers. When we were at the Black sea, in a small town we met some young people who invited us in a teahouse to drink some cay. We had a good time there, then they proposed to go on a trip on the sea. We cruised along the turkisch coast, they stopped and dived and brought crayfish. We went on a small beach, made a fire, and ate all those great food. This was one of the most impressive things we experienced among many others. These are the scissors of the crayfish...
