I have always been fascinated by cherry blossoms, or sakura
as they are called in Japanese. Maybe it’s because of the insane amount of
anime I used to watch on television when I was a kid. The first anime I saw was
Cardcaptor Sakura, in which there were scenes with cherry blossom trees in the
background. I suppose it’s because the tree has a calming effect when it’s just
swaying slowly in the wind, a few flowers being carried away by the wind,
against the background of a bright blue sky (the GIF I've put up here is from Pinterest: https://in.pinterest.com/pin/378443174912860079/). Instantly I would feel a sweet
scent of a flower—not that I have any idea how a cherry blossom smells.
Here is an old sketch of a cherry blossom I made.
