大都会大阪の駅ビルにて
In the big city Osaka, at its station building,
友達とおやつ。ふかふかさくさくの本格スコーン。
I had brunch with a friend of mine. Scone was fluffy inside,
crunchy outside, just perfect.
午後は京都。
Kyoto in the afternoon.
前々から気になっていた本願寺へ。
Visited Honganji where I missed to visit last time I was in Kyoto.
大鐘の不死鳥と
On the big bell, there was a phoenix
天女様。
and a nymph of paradise.
手水屋では鳩がおこぼれ頂戴。
At the purification trough, a pigeon helped itself from the overflowing water.
お堀の蓮の実。
Lotus seeds in the moat.
Refreshing sound of wind chimes rang through the small lane
between the temples of East and West.
紅葉の始まり。
The leaves started to change to autumn colors.
誰かが空にtを書いた。
Somebody drew the letter t in the sky.
