Spring out after silent spring

It blooms out all at once here and there . In addition birds are chattering and flying busily high and low in the sky.
I happened to find swallows for the first time in this season.
They seem having great appetite and catching prey in the field.
They are all busy for making nests to raise eggs and new born babies.

Stormy weather for telling spring

It's said that it will be stormy roughly in the first spring from tomorrow during the week.
It warns there will be strong storm and it might cause bad effect.
So be careful if you should go on a trip . You will have to check every day's weather forecast.
After the storm, it will be spring warmth and watch out the pollen spread in the air, too.

Spring out again!

Today is finally I've found spring here!

There are a lot of meanings of 'spring' as you know, not only for one of the seasons but other nouns and verbs.
Actually it sounds like acting or moving suddenly, also jumping and leaping.
We use the word spring for 'bane' in Japanese which is made coiled by thin steel and cause things jumping or elastic force.
It is very Interesting to learn different taste of culture from the word.

Early Spring Song

There is a famous old Japanese song ' Early Spring Song'.
It says below



It comes Spring but it's only the name not reaches real warm spring yet
The wind is still cold

Nightingale was to start singing but failed
Because it's not the time yet

Though ice melt down and reeds start to grow
Wondering if it were Spring or not

Both of the two days are snow falling
Yesterday and Today...

If I didn't hear that spring had come
I wouldn't have expected too much

How should I deal with my disappointment?
I have no idea what to do these days

Last day of winter

It's the last day of winter in the traditional Japanese calendar today, after the greatest coldness gone over Japan.
I'm a little relieved at the weather news and morning sunshine just now.

"Demons out, fortune in"
That is heard here and there all over Japan because it's the day before beginning of spring, Setsubun.
We are glad to go through out winter season.
