Thursday, 9 June 2011 09:15 Written as a poem of spring.
And for how long
might my heart be entranced
by these meadows?
If flowers did not scatter,
it'd be for a thousand years.
itsu made ka
nobe ni kokoro no
akugaremu
hana shi chirazu wa
chiyo mo enubeshi

Original by Sosei, with another rhetorical question. Sequence-wise, the meadows/fields look forward to a symbol of summer, the summer grasses.itsu made ka
