As the beautiful daffodils are still putting on a triumphant display, now the cherry blossoms are starting to meke a grand entrance.
Daffodils remind me of my mother, and this is a golden oldie dedicated to my mother.

Nightingale (Photo credit: torugatoru)
A nightingale sings
a wistful melody.
The smell of cherry blossom
on a fresh spring tree.
The smell of lilac
will soon be here,
along with the swallows,
and the summer air.
