Ajisai - The Flowers Of Tears

T took me to Chiba to see the flowers called Ajisai which blooms only once a year, in the month of June. We were hoping for a rainy weather because he said Ajisai usually captures the raindrops and make them look like te flowers' tears. Altghouth the sky was clear and the sun was up, the flowers look really gorgeous. I find it hard to believe that such colorful bouquets are connotated with sadness and sorrow.
