The Orange Magic of May

I love Long-headed poppy :-)🧡

They have a high reproductive capacity, and their strong hold on life is overwhelming.

Some people hate them, but I would like to admire their toughness for now.

Sometimes, I can notice that the desolate vacant land became beautiful orange flower garden.

…Whooah! …It's almost like magic!!!

Of course, it goes without saying that Hug dived there soon ;‑)✨

この時期よくみかけるナガミヒナゲシが好きです。

彼らは、とても強い繁殖力を持った外来植物で、

自然の中よりも、人間が暮らす街や路地を好み、

他の植物の生長を妨げながら、その生息エリアを

広げる為、駆除を呼びかける自治体もありますが、

そんな“憎まれっ子世にはばかる”てきな逞しさも、

なんだかいいじゃん♫と思ってしまいます ( ´▽`)

殺風景なただの空き地が、ある日ふと気がつくと、

一面のオレンジ色の花畑になっていたりする!!

それはまるで、魔法にでもかかったかのようで、

満面の笑みを浮かべたハグが、すぐさまそこに

ダイブしたのは言うまでもありません (*´人`*)

If Hug and me laugh,

many things can solve in our home :-)

Let's hug something that doesn't change

in this strange world.

Live each day to the fullest :-) ❤️

早朝の散歩から帰った後は、ステイホームな毎日。

誰とも会わず篭っているとズボラになりがちだけど、

とりあえずちゃんと身拵えして、

その日の献立を考え、ご飯をつくり、

まずはしっかり食べよう。

「あたしの分は🐶?」と、ハグが甘えて目配せをする。

もちろん、ハグの分もちゃんと作るよ。

(基本はカリカリだから、たまにだけどね ( *´艸`))

たくさん食べて、お腹いっぱいになったら、

安心して、ぐっすりおやすみ。

その寝息を聴き乍ら、僕はいまできることをしよう。

生活のリズムは随分と変わってしまったけれど、

うんざりばかりしてないで周りを見渡せば、

変わらないものだって、そこに、ちゃんとある。

「こんなとき」のなかで「いつも」をかんじて。

「ちがい」のなかに「おなじ」をみつけて。

Songs of spring,

tunes of love,

prayer before going to bed,

shooting stars,

throbbing hearts,

following wind,

temporarily plucky feelings…

There are so many things sparkling…

-words by Mary Ann-

春の歌 恋の調べ

眠りにつく前の祈り

流れ星 時に躍る心

追い風 湧き起こる勇気

きらめくものは いくらでもある

Many cherry trees are blooming along the river also. The exercise limitation after surgery is gone, Hug became to able to walk long distances finally. She got back big smile on her face again, and she is counting on go to various places as before. If possible, we want to walk slowly all day long while taking a detour… But during this spring time, we have to endure it to keep our safe life.

I’m so sorry... my loving dog Hug… :'( Now, let's go home!!

近くの川沿いにもたくさんの桜たちが咲いています。 この辺りはハグのお気に入りの散歩コースのひとつ なのですが、術後の運動制限があった時期には とてもここまで歩いては来れなかったので、 ひさしぶりの訪問に、だいぶご機嫌顔です(´∀`)

ようやく脚の怪我が良くなって、 特に休みの日には、春の薫りを嗅ぎながら、 一日中だってあちこち歩きまわりたいだろうけど、 いまはぐっと我慢だね。

さあ、ハグ。そろそろお家へ帰ろうか。

And I prayed to the shrine for the eradication of infectious disease that spread around the world.

Stay safe, my dear friends… And let's get over this hardship together.

散歩の帰りがけに、路地裏の神社へ立ち寄って “疫病退散”の祈願をしてゆくと、やはり同じような 願掛けをして行った方達は他にも沢山いるようで、 そのほとんどが、自分のことというよりも、 むしろ家族や友人、仲間たちのことを心配したり、 元気づけようとする力強い言葉や切なる祈りを それぞれの絵馬に書かれてたのがとても印象的で、 なんだか僕までパワーをいただいてしまいました。

Every spring, enjoying cherry blossoms is an old Japanese custom. But this year, we need to refrain from cherry blossom viewing in places where many people gather to prevent the spread of the virus. However cherry trees are planted here and there in Japanese streets, so I can admire appearance of the cherry blossoms in my daily living sphere while walking with Hug.(I think Dog Walking is definitely a “necessary” activity.)

This place(near the house where I was born) is one of Japanese old castle towns. The cherry blossoms blooming here bring sweet nostalgia to my heart anytime.

忌々しい新型コロナウイルスの影響で、 不要不急の外出自粛も余儀なしとなっている 今年の春の桜は、普段の生活圏における ハグとの散歩(これだけはイヌ族にとっての 絶対的に“必要”な外出!!)の道すがらで、 そっと眺めてくるくらいしか出来ませんが、 それでも街の至るところで、 桜たちは美しく咲き誇ってくれていて、 〈こんなとき〉にも変わらず、 いや〈こんなとき〉だからこそ、私達の眼や心を ほんのひとときときめかせてくれるその姿に、 あらためて感謝を捧げたくなってしまいます。

ここは所用があって訪ねた僕の生家がある城下町。 近隣都市の発展により空洞化が進んだ街から かつての賑わいはすっかり失われてしまったものの 子供の頃から数え切れないほど走り回った 城跡から続く古びた店構えの商店街や細い路地は、 辺りに咲く薄紅色をした桜の花びらとともに、 懐かしさばかりを連れてきます。

Dear my Tumblr’s friends :-)

Thanks to your support, Hug has completely returned to our beloved green road. “Kawazu-zakura(first blooming Japanese cherry blossoms)” bloom earlier than usual and seem to blessing her :’-D Hug endured the pain well and overcame her hardships. I'm proud of her from the bottom of my heart :-)))

Unforeseen misfortunes and sudden sad accidents often occur in our life, it bring darkness to our hearts.  But even the darkest night will end, the sun will rise. And there is always light behind the clouds.

We advance step by step again from here. Believe in today, cherish the strong bond between us, and our caravan carry forward steadily.

Love & Peace.

ハグの怪我と手術に関しましてご心配くださり、 沢山の温かいお言葉や励ましを頂いた皆さま。 ほんとうにありがとうございました。 ようやく回復の報告を出来る時がやってきました!

骨折線はまだ完全には消えてはおらず、 激しい運動はもう暫く控えなければなりませんが、 それ以外の日常生活における制限は一切なくなり、 彼女は元気な姿で、辺りの匂いを嗅ぎ回りながら、 まばゆい光の道を再び歩き始めています ( ´▽`)

------------------------------------------

2020年3月11日、14時46分。 このおだやかな午後のひとときに感謝しながら、 今年も僕の町から、君の町へ。 心からの祈りと友情をこめて。

Dear my Tumblr's friends :-)

Thank you for always loving Hug and giving her many many kind words. Some time ago, she had an injury in her right hind leg and had a surgical operation yesterday. Surgery was successful, but several months of rest and rehabilitation are required until movement function is fully recovered.

I will take a break of Tumblr’s activity for a while to concentrate on support for Hug. If all goes well, in the spring she can run again on our beloved green road with her big smile!! I have no doubt about it :-)))

I'm praying from the bottom of my heart for the health and happiness of you and your family. We should meet up again, my dears♡

December 2, 2019

------------------------------

いつもハグを温かく見守って下さっている皆さま、 あらためて心から感謝しています。

実は少し前にハグが右後脚に怪我を負ってしまい、 昨日動物病院で大きな手術を受けました。 手術は無事に成功し、一週間程度の入院のあと、 自宅に戻っての安静とリハビリが数ヶ月間必要で、 僕は彼女のサポートに専念するため、 Tumblrの活動をしばらくお休みします。 順調に回復すれば、桜が咲く頃までには普通に 歩くことも走ることもできるようになりますので、 どうかくれぐれもご心配なく。 僕たちが愛してやまない、長い長い緑の道を、 彼女がもう一度、笑顔で駆け抜けてくれることを、 僕は微塵も疑っていません ( ´▽`)

皆さまと、皆さまのご家族の毎日が、 健やかで幸せに包まれたものでありますように。

ではでは、また!

長く長く続く、緑の道。 そこが、僕たちの約束の場所。

長く長く続く、緑の道。 そこが、僕たちの約束の場所。

Owls are basically said to be nocturnal birds. But in this forest, we can sometimes hear owl calls actively in the morning or noon. Yes... In a secret place that only me and Hug know... ;-) Look... and listen carefully... See, it also resounds in tall trees today... :-))))

愛犬・ハグが9歳の誕生日を迎えました。

時が経つのは早いもので人間でいうところの59歳、 なんと還暦が近い年齢になっているなんてっっ!! 被毛の色や挙動の変化、寝ている時間の長さなど、 僅かな、しかし確かな“老い”の兆候は、 生活の端々でますます増えていってはいるものの、 彼女の瞳は相変わらず美しく好奇心に満ちており、 小さい頃からの癖であるつま先立ちのような姿勢で いまでも見えない壁の向こう側を しきりにのぞきこもうとしてみたりだとか、 (大抵の場合そこにはネコさんがいます(*ΦωΦ*) ) 散歩の途中で彼女にとって素敵なモノをみつけると かならず僕のほうをくるりと振りかえって、 「ねえねえ、みつけたよ!」って教えてくれる… そんな“変わらない”部分に幸せを感じるながら、 彼女に向けてシャッターを切り続ける毎日です。

「さあハグ、わらって!こっち向いて!!」

------------------------------------

わらって、 わらって、 しばらく じっとして 自然に撮るから ふざけないで こっち向いて

光がキレイよ 天使が写るよ あなたに見えない 私からだけしか 今まで 誰にも 見せない表情 それは レンズのこちら側 私がいるからね

ときには焦って ピントがブレても あなたは 私の永遠

Woo, Smile for me Woo, Smile for me… (松任谷由実「Smile for me」より)

The weather forecast was right. Today is probably a lucky day. I took my car out of the garage little earlier and is waiting for you.

What I take to the sea is wrapped in seersucker. It is flat canned Coke, and the broken screw of my heart.

My darling, come on, now, Let's go out to the last surf this year.

No one knows how the weather will change in the future. But if today is dazzling all day, that's all I need.

October has arrived. It is the beginning of a glimpse of autumn. Autumn flowers are slowly returning to our green road. During the summer, Hug was a little tired because of the too hot weather, but finally regained her energy and sings her favorite song in the morning light every day :-))))♪

---------------------

Hello, my Tumblr's friends :‑) Since this summer, my private life and job have become so busy that I couldn't do Tumblr activities very often. I will resume posting slowly again from now on :-D

10月をむかえて、 野辺には秋の花たちが少しずつ戻ってきました。 さあ、ちいさな秋のはじまりです。 夏の間、あまりの暑さにぐったりしていたハグも、 朝晩だけはようやく涼しくなってきたので、 (お彼岸をすぎたのに、日中はまだ真夏日!) 元来の活発さを取り戻して、朝の光を浴びながら ご機嫌に歌をうたっていますヽ( ´▽`) ♪

These photos were taken a while ago. Japan entered the rainy season in early June, and the sun remains hidden somewhere. Sunlight hardly reaches my residence area for more than one month. I never dislike cloudy sky, but I gradually miss the dazzling sun…✨✨

Shadows of Trees

And yet there is joy in this day as in the heart of the young sun. Of this joy the world of tables, guns and gods is altogether unaware.

Only to this place where people are standing do shadows of trees lead their hearts home, enveloped in this day's humility.

When I read the sky, sing of clouds, or murmur in joy, as in prayer,

sun and trees alike look upon both what I've forgotten and what I endlessly recall.

-Shuntaro Tanikawa

蒸し暑い6月の太陽に背を向けて 僕らは しずかな木陰に逃げこんだ

生い茂った草の上 ふたりならんで坐って  風にゆれる木洩れ陽を ぼんやりながめていると 光の粒が まるでいきものみたいに  ちいさく ちいさく 身震いし やがて 愉しげに歌いだした

どうせ あてもない 今日の日だ しばらくこのまま 涼んでいこう あわてないで いそがないで

ひとやすみ ひとやすみ

Spring notes #3

Ohh, Our friend's beagle boy finds us and rushes from the other side of the Chinese milk vetch field. Hug is smiling more and more happily while having fun time with her boyfriend. “Dogs  are our link to paradise”…This is a passage of my favorite words by Milan Kundela. Unfortunately, the time we can live with such a dearest dogs is not eternal. But that fact definitely makes this moment so beautiful and so meaningful. _________________________

I dedicate these three "spring notes" posts to my another dear dog “Roku” who lost last May.

My eternal Good Boy... I hope you are smiling in peace... :-)

おなじように春の景色を楽しみにやってきていた 友達のビーグルボーイが、レンゲ畑の向こうから 僕たちの姿をみつけて駈けだしてきます。 ハグは大好きな彼と仲よさそうに戯れながら、 ますます幸せそうに笑っています。 “犬は楽園への架け橋である”とは、僕の好きな ミラン・クンデラによる言葉の一節です。 そんな愛すべき彼らと一緒にすごすことの できる時間は、けっして永遠ではありません。 でも、永遠でないからこそ、いまこのひとときが こんなにも美しく、いとおしいのだろうと しみじみと思うのでした。 _________________________

1年前の5月に『虹の橋』を渡っていった 僕のもう一匹の大切なイヌ、ロクへ。 今年ハグと僕が眼にした5月の美しい花々を、 きみも空のうえからみてくれていたかい? 地上では、またゆっくりと季節がゆくよ。 いまきみがいる、はるか遠い天空の国で、 どうかきみが毎日笑っていてくれますように。

When I move my eyes to other flower fields, poppies are blooming colorfully. The humming of cute bees carrying pollen is added to the symphony played by Spring. It will be an increasingly stunning chord :-))))

ポピーの花畑も、いままさに見頃を迎えています。 色とりどりの花たちがのびのびと瑞々しく咲き誇り、 そこに昆虫たちが花粉を集めにやってきます。 春のよろこびが、光の音符になってころがって、 野原いちめんにひろがります。

Calm sunshine pours over our green fields, and the flowers laugh hilariously. I will be in harmony with those landscape slowly. Then I listen to the symphony played by Spring. Beautiful notes ride in the wind and spread over the whole of lovely flower garden. Dissonance is not here, absolutely... ;-)

桜が散ると、野の花たちが次々に咲きはじめます。 毎年決まって訪れる花畑ももちろん素敵なのですが 日々更新される散歩ルートで見慣れない風景を みつけると、なおのこと心躍ってしまいます。 おなじみのルートから少し外れたところで、 今季に出逢ったのは、ベニバナツメクサの群生地。 すでに終りかけの感じは少しだけ残念でしたが、 辺り一面が極彩色の赤と緑に染まった景観は、 まるでここが日本ではないようさえ思えました。 来年はもっと早い時期に再訪してみたいです (´◡`)

I think photography is always a collaboration with encounters. Even if it doesn't succeed, there is an absolute meaning. First of all, nothing happens unless the camera shutter is released. Anyway, we should look at what is there, capture it, and enjoy a chat with the ‘llittle fragments and souvenirs of an unfinished world’.

“Come on, Let's jump out ! To the Main Street ! ”

I am grateful to all subjects any time ;-)

Memories of the day when I revisited Tokyo with Hug. Last time we went to the downtown, and this time to the central area :-)) After all… I definitely like “Tokyo Tower” than “Tokyo Sky Tree”:-D

ハグと一緒に、再び“おのぼりさん”をしてきました。 今回は汐留のパーキングに駐車し、まずは東京タワーへと向かいました。 東京タワーには、時期柄タワーの高さ333mにちなんだ色とりどりの333匹の鯉のぼりが飾られ、気持ち良さそうに風のなかを泳いでいました。やっぱりスカイツリーよりも東京タワーが好きだなぁ。。。と実感しきり (*´人`*) その後、休日で歩行者天国になっている銀座から築地方面へ。 銀座には、個人で仕事をするようになる前に勤務していた会社があり、築地は会社員時代に長くお世話になった取引先があった場所だったので、記憶をたどり歩を進めるうちに、懐かしさがどんどんと胸にあふれてきました。隅田川からぼんやり眺める東京タワーの景色も気に入っていて、そのまま勝どきや月島方面へも歩いてみたかったんですけど、時間が足りなくて断念。。。

あと数日で、元号が令和に変わろうとしています。 いまの自分のライフスタイルを形作っていった時期である平成の30年を憶い起こすとき、なんとなくいつも小沢健二さんの歌が頭のなかで鳴りだします。ふと東京タワーを見にいきたくなったのも、そうした気分が作用していたからなのかもしれません (*´人`*)

ハグ、そんなとりとめのない懐古旅につきあってくれてありがとう。

“ぼくらの住むこの世界では 旅に出る理由があり 誰もみな 手をふっては しばし別れる”

そして、毎日はつづいてく。

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。

There are many types of cherry blossoms in Japan. The most popular among them is "Somei-Yoshino". The growth of trees is fast, but the flowers are fragile and their life span is very short. Such a scene when they bloomed all at once is exceptional, and many people are attracted to the appearance. In addition, the appearance that the petals are falling is also very beautiful... :’-)

Beginning of the cherry blossom season :-)))) It was “Kawazu-zakura” that first bloomed. I like the time when fresh green leaves began to include, rather than dark pink flowers only :-D

桜の季節がはじまりました ( ´▽`) 河津桜は、ピンクの花だけでなく、 葉っぱの緑色が混じり始めた頃の感じが好きです。 ソメイヨシノが咲き揃うまでには、あともう少し。

8 years have passed since the Great East Japan earthquake. We appreciate being able to live a usual life in afternoon soft light this year as well.

Children's laughter echoes cheerfully in the park. Someone is calling someone's name... to share the tenderness warmed in the palm of hand.

And... Flowers will bloom again :-))

時は嘉月 吐く息はまだ白いまま 冬霧も 相変わらずに蒼く 僕らを包む

けれども ごらん 彼方には あんなにも淡い 春色の空が やがて この荒れ地のような 茶色い野原も 草や花々で 眩しいくらいに覆われるだろう

さあ バディ 僕らの足音を 高く響かせよう 鼻歌を唄いながら 新しい季節を 迎えにゆこう
