Hanami on the Okawa: A cherry blossom celebration with art, music and poetry

Each year people gather along the banks of the Okawa River in Osaka to celebrate the cherry blossoms that grow along its banks. Cherry blossom season inspired this art and poetry.

Stay tuned for more waka here at The Reiki Digest. Waka Fest continues for another two weeks, so there's still time to submit your waka or cherry blossom inspired art. Send your suibmissions in an email to waka @ thereikidigest.com and be sure to include the word "waka" in the subject line.
