It is said that this poem was written on a fan which was a tribute to a emperor of the time. What an intelligent person that Ms. Nakatsukasa praised the emperor by quoting a passage from the Analects!
I wrote this verse on a piece of paper with Japanese anemone.
The Japanese anemone of my home also started to bloom. This grass will also flow in the wind of a saint.
