A giant sausage-shaped cattail stands by the water.
The flower language of cattail is "compassion."
Cattails are mysterious plants that hide a kindness and compassion that is hard to imagine from their flat, plain appearance.When their fruit ripens, it bursts open, and fluffy white fluff dances in the wind.
The scenery here makes it seem as if a Japanese mythical nursery rhyme, about how Daikoku-sama once healed a white rabbit injured by a cattail, can be heard floating on the wind.
