Mnemonic

When a prison holds the sun inside it, everything will always be in season. Obviously if the sun is in prison, the seasons can't change. Want to eat perfect apples all year round? Just put the sun in prison when they're ripe — usually a short window of ten days.

You're welcome. Now you know how to keep everything in season. Lifehack!

Mnemonic

When things are in season for more than ten days, people are going to wonder what's going on. When's Christmas? When's Golden Week? Soon (しゅん), you say. Soon enough, it's June (じゅん). Which is the middle of the year, so now everything is soon.

Joke's on them though. Soon it will be apple season. Soon it will always be time for apples. Soon June will end and people will forget about everything else, living forever inside that period of ten days when apples are most in season.
