It’s has been raining almost every day since the beginning of September.

そこで一句

今日もまた 秋のなが雨 いつあがる
    
          by 南方呆家


(雨で思い出した歌)

「雨の御堂筋」「雨の慕情」「雨の中の二人」

「空港」「有楽町で逢いましょう」 

「アカシヤの雨がやむとき」 

           世代がバレる!

These days we have much rain. It is raining very heavily here in Higashiosaka now. Our place is safe because there are no large rivers, no mountains and no sea near our place.
It means we don’t live in a scenic place.
I can say any nice place with rich nature might have floods, landslides and tsunami (tidal waves). 

We can visit those nice scenic place for holidays. Oh, it seems like sour grapes.

私は生まれてこの方、山や海の自然ゆたかな場所には住んだことがありません。

ある意味、そのような景色の良いところに住むのは憧れです。でも海も山もない大きな川もない景色の良くないところは洪水、津波、崖崩れの心配はしなくてよい。景色の良いところにはたまに休暇で行けばいい。ちょっと負け惜しみが入っていますが、、、



A few days ago, when I was closing the front door after the class in the evening, a guy with his dog waved his hand standing far away. I couldn’t see clearly who he was because it was too dark. Then he walked to me and greeted. I was surprised to see him wearing this shirt. And I noticed he is one of our class members. He was a good humorous man.

The same picture is printed on the front side  of the shirt.  In fact, he really frightened me.
