Sleeplessly I watch over the spring night— but no amount of guarding is enough to make it stay. (Izumi Shikibu, Japanese poet of the mid-Heian period)

A spring night, made of blossom, moonlight, and the whisper of the wind in fresh green leaves is fragile by its very nature; trying to grasp it in its floating splendour is a vain effort. But its spirit is persistent—so much so that sometimes in mid-winter we catch a sudden whiff of cherry petals bathed in moonlight.
