On the table which I occupy, strong wind delivers a tiny spray.

Come to the Asagaya to walk along the zelcova trees street.
This week the buds of zelcova trees fall like rain.
It would be agreable time when you sit a chair beside the pavement.

In front of a wall paper shop there are lots of plants in pots.
I found white flowers that I don't know its name.
I ask the name to the bald head storekeeper.
The aged man says, "This is that we offer before the tablet of deceased."
I find a name,"Sakaki? But it seems not."
The old man laughs and says, " It's a staranise, not sakakis.

A grey starling's head appears from a gable vent of a house in Daita 2-chome (代田2丁目).
A few minutes later it flys out onto a branch of trees standing near.
A few second later another one's head appears and flys to the same branch of the tree. The half destroyed vent shoud be their nest.

These days more and more small insects fly around me.
I am standing for watch infront of the gate of construction site.
On the surface of the gate I find a mating of tiny creatures.
Their size is only a few milimeters.
I surprise to find the diferences in shape between the couple.

This pulley and hook looks like a masked man who mocks with showing his tongue, dosen't it?
This should be surely a Tetsumenpi (鉄面皮 = brazenface), shouldn't this?

It is too fine to take pictures of flowers today. I look up the green leaves of tall trees and make up my mind taking pictures of these strong green color.

満天星 azale de lanterne

For a long time I had been believed this flower's name is andromeda.
The true name of this flower is Enkianthus perulatus.
The Japanese name is Dohdan-tsutuji.
Andromeda's japanese name is asebi or asibi.

I learned the latter name in a mystery when I was twelve years old.
A criminal throws these nuts into a miso supe to kill the victims in vain.
The detective named Heiji of Coins (銭形平次) is reported a beautiful little daughter of victim couple playing with this flower. He says to his agent, "If a horse would eat this plant, it should be killed with the poison of this plant. If the horse could survive, it could not walk like a man who have drunken too much. So it is called Drunken Horse tree(馬酔木) ."
In my mother's garden, there is no andromeda.
I think she would have been feared for me to eat it.
In my childhood, I always tasted anything which I got in the garden.
