The Day Spring Stands (Ri-Shun/立春) Winter has been performing its own solo. Cold wind, cold temperature, dry & wet. Snow paints the world of white silver. Cozy time with family & friends around the fire. But the solo act is now beginning to shift. New baby spring has appeared on stage. Winter and new born Spring Are now both performing. Inserting a little warm and brightness in between the sharp cold air. Plants are getting more light each day. Jam session of Winter and Baby Spring. The duo act started. The Day Spring Stands. | photo & edited by Yoshiko Sienkiewicz 2/3 is Setu-bun/節分: spreading two seasons (the 24 seasons calendar in Japan) 2/4 is called Rishon/立春: Spring Stands! |

I so appreciate this new knowledge of 24 seasons that you taught me, and so the intricacies of this poem dance beautifully together, just like the intermingling of new born baby spring and end of season winter.
