Newyear Spring Summer Autumn Winter

spring rain--everything becomes more beautiful


Spring rain is falling, and drops of rain are running down last year's wasp's nest which is hanging from the eves. Every time it rains the grasses and trees sprout. And then all the distant mountains and plains become green. The water of the little stream increases and makes a soothing sound and wets the trees and stones. In this way spring rain makes everything beautiful.
