そろそろ遅い春か (Belated Spring Seems to Be Coming)

　この冬は例年よりかなり寒く、雪の被害も多く聞いた。昨日になって、ここ堺でも一時雪が降った。けさもよく冷えたが、よい天気になって来た。これからようやく暖かくなるのだろうか。写真は一昨日、ウォーキングの途中で見つけた一輪のタンポポの花。

It was considerably colder than usual this winter. We heard many news stories of damage caused by snow. Yesterday, it snowed for a short time even in this area of Sakai. It was also cold this morning but has become sunny weather. It seems that spring is coming at last. The above photo of a dandelion was taken during my walking practice the day before yesterday.
