The publishing arm of Full Bloom is inspired by the plum blossom. You will find it on our logo, on the spines of the books we publish, and on correspondence. The plum blossom is loved for its beauty and longevity. But more importantly, it is loved because it blooms in winter. Just as we think we can’t take another snow storm we see the plum blossom trees beginning to bloom. In that spirit, we offer a poem from the Japanese Kokinshu, by Hitomaro.
As the poem describes, the winters of our lives can deceive us: the blossoming promise of the day can be mistaken for snow. While obstacles may seem to be everywhere, they are more likely the white petals of the plum blossom, heralding the coming spring. Full Bloom's books celebrate the blooming of awakened culture and the way book authors bring freshness, vibrancy, and beauty to our challenging world. With creativity and some imagination, the world can always have the freshness of early spring.
