We got back in time to see the cherry blossom as the sun was going down.

We drank tea in the evening sunlight.

The tree was jewelled with snails, ladybirds, shield bugs, pollen beetles.

Every branch of the tree was humming with bees of every kind.

We had all stages of blossom, from emerging to fading, to over.

The evergreen hedge was a stern backdrop to the delicate petals.

The sky was blue, fading to white, then to gold as evening came.

The sun shone through the petals of the cherry blossom.
