Richard：Springtime in Osaka

Spring is here again. It is one of my favorite seasons. The weather is gradually getting warmer. My body is welcoming the daytime warmth and looking forward to the nighttime coziness. As the temperature gradually rises and the smell of the air changes, you really get the feeling that spring is here again.


I have never heard anyone say they don't like spring. Spring is a season for everyone. The elderly won't feel as cold, kids can return to the parks, families can resume their barbecues, and young people can hang out outdoors once again.

Why do I like spring?

The answer is in the air. The answer is in the trees, in the flora and fauna. The answer is in the atmosphere. The answer is in the sunrise and the sunset.

You can smell the blossoming flowers, you can see the hedges, bushes and trees alike, blossoming and bearing fruit.

You can see birds and other animals with what seems to be a renewed energy, a renewed spirit that says: “Winter is over, spring is here”. The sunset seems more beautiful in spring, as does the sunrise. As if they are saying: “Change is here, I have brought you the warmth of spring.”

It seems as though everything is renewed in spring.
Spring brings renewal and freshness.
Spring brings the happy laughter of kids.

Spring brings peace and relaxation.

I
like
spring.
