Haiku of hydrangea

【紫陽花の応援うけて前進む】(真栄)

Translation✿❀

The support of the hydrangea have me moving forward(Shin Ei)


Hello from Japan.

Here is a haiku of my own composition.

(I recently joined a haiku study group at the Basho Memorial Museum to learn how to write my own haiku.)


June is the rainy season and I am not in good shape every year, but in the gray air I walk to the station along the riverside path.


The beautifully colored hydrangeas give my heavy mind and body a rest, and cheer me up to go forward.


The beauty of the hydrangea is like a lantern in the darkness, or a water station in a marathon.


Every year the hydrangea blooms and cheers me up with its mere presence.


This year's rainy season seems to be over. Thanks to the support of the hydrangea's presence I managed to get through this year. Hot summer is coming, please take good care of yourselves!


Have a good summer!
