    A large rabbit offers a cup filled with white flowers to a small rabbit. This cup, holding flowers instead of water, symbolizes pure kindness given without expecting anything in return and a tender gift arising from the heart.

  2. Large rabbit and small rabbit facing each other

    The tall rabbit bends down to face the small rabbit with care. This arrangement, like an adult and child, signifies a relationship that protects and cherishes without calculation, and the tenderness of watching over someone.

  3. Five cups lined up at their feet

    Five flower-filled chalices are lined up at their feet, while the remaining one is being offered now. The cups, each blooming with flowers, symbolize the fond memories built together and the emotional fruits that grow richer through sharing.

  4. Small rabbit wearing a flower crown

  5. Courtyard enclosed by a stone wall

    A low stone wall cozily surrounds the courtyard behind the two rabbits. Like a safe fence that keeps danger away, the courtyard within the wall symbolizes a warm refuge where one is protected and cared for.

  6. Hometown-like house and steeple

    Familiar rooftops and a pointed steeple can be seen beyond the wall. The scene of the recognizable village evokes cherished old memories, like a hometown where you spent your childhood and where your heart longs to return and rest.
