There is so much going on, on the Charles River Esplanade – but that’s only my guess, quiet as it was on that cloudy May Day. On warmer days, the Hatch Cell becomes alive with concerts and plays. There are many sports and playgrounds alongside, and paddling on the river. People are walking and jogging, others play on the lawn. Families and friends share picnics. There is music and laughter and basking in the sun. But, for now, let us enjoy a precious moment of peace, as transient and fragile as those pink cherry blossoms.

I love the branch over the pond, and the empty benches …. waiting as the cherry blossoms hold an invitation.

It was a beautiful walk, a rare luxury of quietness and peace… and those trees in full bloom! Inviting they were, indeed! Some other eager cherry blossom chasers, equipped with full photo gear, agreed with us! But the day was cool and they weren’t too many, thankfully.
