梅の木

Japanese apricot blossoms are fully bloomed at the door.

It’s true that the shape and the color of them are really lovely, 

but especially its smell always puts me in a good mood.

Some of my neighbors always adore and praise the beauty of the tree

walking along the lane in front of my house every morning.

I and my family feel a little flattered hearing their voice from the window.

何年か前には幹に虫がつき、弱っていた梅の古木ですが、

今年はたくさん花が咲きました。

朝、玄関のドアを開けると

かすかにいい香りがして、春を感じます。
