Cherry blossoms, I believe, but probably of an ornamental cherry tree, which means no cherries, just blossoms in spring. Neatness in fall when no cherries mess up the ground. Symbolic of many things--all show, no fruition.
This one reminds me of a Japanese postcard.
And below the blossoms, on the ground, these dainty little flowers. I like patterns like this.
Springtime is picture time. A thousand pictures of blooms and leaves and nature. As I have said before, my favorite of Newton's Laws is the Second Law of Thermodynamics. All the blossoms, all the leaves, and everything, everything, winds down, wears out, gives out, and dies.
Other refuge have I none, hangs my helpless soul on Thee;
Leave, ah! leave me not alone, still support and comfort me.
All my trust on Thee is stayed, all my help from Thee I bring;
Cover my defenseless head with the shadow of Thy wing.
