Ode To Our Green Road #6

Ode to our Green Road #4

At the time of the end of cherry blossom season in town, the wild and vibrant colors are returning to our beloved Green Road.

This blessed natural field where few humans come is free of COVID-19 virus, and instead are full of highly infectious joy, smiles, and happiness :-))

With our friend Beagle Boy, we took a walk around the waterside where the cherry blossoms were in full bloom. On the river, there are people paddling a canoe with dog. We also want to try it, but Hug is so timid that maybe I think she can not ride together. Many rape blossoms bloom on the banks of the river, and white clouds floating in the blue sky slowly and quietly flow. We are now in the middle of the idyllic spring :-))))

友達のビーグルボーイと一緒に、 桜が咲きそろった水辺を散歩しました。 川ではイヌを乗せてカヌー遊びする人の姿も！ 僕たちも挑戦してみたいなぁと思ったけれど、 ハグはとても恐がりなイヌなので、 静かに乗っていてくれはしないでしょう (;´∀｀)

川のほとりには一面に菜の花が咲いています。 ぽっかりと浮かんだ白い雲が、 真っ青な空を静かに静かに流れてゆきます。

僕たちはいま、のどかな春の真ん中にいます。

ちいさな囁きに、耳をすませば。

Flowers bloomed The town colorizes faintly We share its glimmer again today And finally start for home with a smile Your heart will not lose bright color We can overcome any hardships Tomorrow is so fragile Even so, we believe and wait...

花が咲いた　町がちいさく色づく 君を連れて　遠くへゆくのもいいな

ひとは今日も　ささやかなひかりを分けあう そして　やっと　笑顔で家路につく

生きることは　過ぎ去ること 口にしたら　やるせないけど

きみのこころは　色あせない どんな悲しいことも　乗り越えてゆけるから

花が散った　またひとつ何かを知らなきゃ 明日は儚い　それでも　信じて待つ （ 阿部芙蓉美『 町 』より ）

Surely tomorrow will be…

There the garden shovel lay

Left out on a rainy day

Now the rain has gone away

Leaving just a little sneeze

And the clouds are going,too

Now the light is shining through

Raise your head, it’s there for you

Oh, oh, a rainbow, oh, a rainbow

Spread across the heavens

Only you, only you

Can clear the clouds inside of you

Surely tomorrow will be beautiful

Surely tomorrow will be a beautiful day

-words from “Rainbow” by Toshihiko Shinzawa

Hello SunChild, Little SunChild Until the moment you wake up, you are in a dream

I can't devote this sunlight to someone I can't imagine this sunlight is taken away from me

Hello SunChild, Lonely SunChild Until the moment you wake up, I'll be with you

You're my best friend No one can be frictional to me…

-Motoharu Sano『SUNCHILD』

Because I can't say by the words, I'm saying by the voice. But because I can't even say by the voice, I'm saying in a viscera. The world is never jigsaw-puzzle.

Alianza de sangre

We are alive

Now, while inhaling the threat

There is no guarantee in life

I want to awaken the primordial impulse

that does not go through language

I want to love and confront any situation

that surrounds us

Unquestionably,

May all of us can reach for each other's hands…♥️

Ferme de Noël 2021

The annual Christmas market was held in our town.

It was done on a vast farm inspired by a rural town in France, me and Hug fully enjoyed shopping and meal there.

It felt like a fleeting trip to Europe :-)))

フランスの田舎をイメージしてつくられた地元の広大な農業公園で、この時期になると仏語でクリスマスの農場を意味する”Ferme de Noël”と名付けられたクリスマスマーケットが開催されます。

僕とハグも２年ぶりに朝一番で行ってみましたが、今年は全国の人気ショップが多数出店していたのに加えて、コロナの感染状況がかなり落ち着いていることもあり、時間の経過とともに人出が物凄いことになってきたので早めに退散。。。👀💦

若干人酔いしそうになりながらも（笑）束の間のヨーロッパ小旅行気分を愉しみました😆✈️🇫🇷🐶

高い空が　ゆっくり　流れて 季節を　そうっと　やさしく　運んでく ほら　もう　５月がゆくよ
