kids and sakura 子供と桜　(shinjuku gyoen, tokyo)

Posted by timothy (Tokyo, Japan) on 17 April 2008 in Plants & Nature and Portfolio.

as i was walking through shinjuki-gyoen i came across this pair of friends enjoying the reflection of cherry blossoms dancing in the pond. something in this scene really touched me, and i began welling with tears-- sometimes when i am witness to moments such as these, i feel as though i should have similar memories within my childhood, of growing up under the cherry blossoms and of chasing my friends around the park, laughing as we tag one another-- alas, i haven't such memories, as i had been born a continent away.
