瑠璃柳(ルリヤナギ)     風待顔に 揺れもせず 梅雨の夕暮れ 雨は止みけり


令和三年七月七日 (七夕)


昨日夕暮れ駅より帰る道ある家の庭に瑠璃柳咲きたり

背の高からざる若木なれど垣根より道に顔を出したり

葉には先ほど止みたる雨の名残りの滴を載せてつゆも揺れず

何処か風待顔の瑠璃柳なりけり


Waxyleaf Nightshade (Solanum melanoxylon) was in bloom in the garden of a house on the way back from the station at dusk yesterday.

It was a windless dusk after the rain, but the flowers seemed to be waiting for the wind to blow.
