There is a street named Sakura-dori
in my neighborhood.
There are cherry trees on both sides of the street.
The cherry blossoms are at their best.
Today Sakura-matsuri was held there.
I enjoyed strolling down the street
viewing the cherry blossoms.
I was sorry it was cloudy today.
How I wished the sky were blue!
The sky did not turn blue—always grey.
It was very cold.
Everybody there looked happy.
How happy we are
to enjoy a life of peace!
