Seeming to lift up into the air and fly at an angle towards the upper left, blue wind with flowers on its wings takes flight upon this kimono.
Flowers like chrysanthemums, plum blossoms, and bush clovers bloom upon long branches adorned with leaves and blades of grass; they follow the way of this wind as they sprout up and fly with the current.
A faint, geometric damask pattern exists behind the flowers and the wind, somehow tying the entire scene together, and what a beautiful scene it is to have hanging upon a wall or upon your very self.
