HIGANBANA
flowers for the autumn equinox

this year they are more than two weeks later than usual. The ricefields, where they present a beautiful red frame to the yellow fields, are already cut and brown.

Dear Gabi san,

I visited my brother's grave about two weeks ago on a hot day. I also found in the temple precinct a white higanbana...

lingering heat-
in the bamboo grove's shade
a first higanbana

最近は普通の庭や花壇に彼岸花を植えます。
戦前生まれの私には”おや!!”と言う感じがします。
久しぶりに
正調ー彼岸花を見ました。
お墓にこのお花が一番詩情をそそります。

久しぶりに秋になったな~と感じました。
