You weren't home when I came--
even the plum blossoms were
in another yard
Rusu ni kite
ume sae yoso no
kakiho kana
From what tree's
blossoming I do not know,
but oh, its sweet scent!
Nan no ki no
hana towa shirazu
nioi kana
Things beyond number,
all somehow called to mind by
blossoming cherries
Samazama no
koto omoidasu
sakura kana
Wake up! Wake up!
Then we'll become good friends,
sleeping butterfly
Okiyo okiyo
waga tomo ni sen
nuru kocho

Oh my god, this is so cool, Elise. I read it before I had any idea of who posted it. I was happily surprised to see it was you.
CherryO's!
