A happy new year to you!
For the beginning of 2002, I picked a verse from Janice M. Bstok's
haiku which is on top of the 1999 issues in
Paper wasp Haiku Web Site in Australia. Because it sounded like
a hint to open a new area to me. A room must have the different thoughts
and feelings of its dwellers. But when people in different houses open
their doors for some reason, they might find the same moon light there.
Now countries have different aspects by each own history and culture
and are hard to understand each other. But when they each open the door of
mind, all might find the same light of nature. If the light is with
coldness, they might want to share warmness with each other.
あけましておめでとうございます。２００２年の最初には、オーストラリアの
Paper wasp Haiku Web Siteの中の１９９９年版ページ最初にあるJanice M. Bstokさんの俳句を使わせていただきました。新しい年の開き方のヒントのように私の耳にひびいたからです。たまたま部屋から外に出ると、寒さの中に明るい月光が満ちていて、大きな自然にうたれます。それぞれの国内の空気と考えのなかからふと抜け出して心の扉を開くと、誰にも同じ月があかあかと照らしているのかもしれませんね。
