たばこの気持ち

ビルの合間で背を伸ばしたサツキが満開。私は「さぞ窮屈だろうに！」と同情しつつ、「嫌なら引っ越せばいいのに」とも言えない。

これもご近所さんのユスラウメ。緑色の果実の中に、真っ赤に熟したユスラウメが、「ここよ、ここ、私はここよ」と語っているようで、私は通り過ぎてから戻って写真を撮った。

A tall satsuki tree was in full bloom between buildings. I can't say, "It must be so cramped!" but I can't say, "If you don't like it, why don't you just move out?

This is another neighbor's Japanese apricot. Amongst the green fruit, a bright red ripe lily of the valley seemed to be saying, "Here, here, I'm here," and I walked past and went back to take a picture.
