Today is May the 1st, and my garden is very beautiful. I admire my two tall cherry trees and their pretty white flowers. There are also (some) yellow daffodils with (some) purple tulips and (some) white daisies.

I like to sit on my bench: I listen to the songs of the birds and I feel the sun on my skin.
