🎨 How to color it

Color the cherry blossoms soft pink, the arched bridge warm red-brown, the stream pale blue, and the distant mountains lavender gray. Use the side of a crayon for the wide water curves and sky, then switch to a sharper point for the tiny petals, roof lines, and pine trees. Try making the blossoms near the top a brighter pink than the faraway trees, so the branches feel close enough to brush.

The story behind this coloring page

Rumi’s River-Path Race — Under the pink-flutter branches, Rumi pressed a stick into the soft riverbank. Scratch, swoop, scratch! Read the full story →

Under the pink-flutter branches, Rumi pressed a stick into the soft riverbank. Scratch, swoop, scratch! She made a new game called River-Path Race: float one blossom petal, then run beside it without stepping off the curvy line she drew. Her sandals thumped over the bridge boards. Water smelled cold and mossy below. “Beat the bend!” she shouted, proud of every wiggly turn her hand had made.

Past the little gate, the petal zipped ahead. Rumi chased it around stones and tufts of grass until a bright paper kite bobbed above the roofs. Its tail was not string at all—it was a long ribbon of matching curves, copied from Rumi’s muddy path! The wind had carried her game uphill, and the valley was racing with her. Next time you spot the stream curling under the bridge, can you trace Rumi’s scratch, swoop, scratch?
