羊雲 : 翌日は雨になる

羊雲 : It will rain the next day.

見上げた空がただただ鮮やかで
空を見上げペダルを漕ぎ､空の果てを追いかけた日曜日の夕暮れ間近
ふわふわの雲間から覗く優しい色した空と夕暮れ前のまだ若い夕陽のオレンジ色の柔らかい光に包まれたような､どこか心があたたかな感覚だった瞬間......
 
気持ちよく空が晴れ陽射しが暖かかった先週末
土曜日は平和島で開催された東京大田区のフェスティバルにて青空の下､人工芝のステージで子供たちのダンスの発表会
僅かな時間の中で次から次にそれぞれのクラスがダンスを披露
日曜日のPOP BREAKDANCE クラスからはいつも通り男子が二人

伸輔のチャリティーイベントでも僕の無茶振りで無理やり踊らされた二人の本番

チャリティーイベントの伸輔のTシャツとオレンジ色のニット帽を衣装にステージでめいいっぱい精一杯の練習の成果を披露しました
袖では可愛い奴らですが舞台に立てば堂々としていて

色々な想いと共に一瞬涙が出そうな瞬間がありました......

会場まで自転車で往復約2時間の道のりも空と風と子供たちのパフォーマンスで清々しく感じた時間でした
それからまた晴れた先週のまだ早い朝の僅かな時間
工業地帯のセントラルパークへ......
教えていただいたように赤くなったふわふわのコキアを想像し向かい
朝の木漏れ日感じる樹々の中を歩きコキアの集まる場所へ向かうと......

少し頬を赤らめたようなまだ薄緑色のコキアの群れ
工業地帯コキアは頑固なようで頬を赤らめたシャイなコキア達でした......

羊雲翌日は天気が崩れると朝の天気予報で耳にした通り
新しい一週間の始まりの月曜日は冷たい雨の始まり

空気が一気に冷たくなり冬のような空気に包まれたこちら

慌てて裏地にボアのついたジャンパーを引っ張り出し弟の元へ今日は電車で向かいました......

病院はいつも丁度いい室温で管理されていて
夏は涼しく冬は温かく､いつも秋のようなそんな感じで......

伸輔も心地よさそうでした
しかし伸輔のリハビリをしている最中に地震......

7階はぐにゃぐにゃと大きく揺れる感覚で､隣に居た看護師の方が酔いそうになる揺れだねとおじいさんに話していました......

地震があった際は看護師さん達によって各部屋への声掛けや様子を見に来るのが徹底されていて
こちらにも声掛けしに来てくださったのですが兄弟揃って何事もなかったような感じで
｢あ､大丈夫です､ありがとうございます｣と......

大きな地震ではなくて良かったですが小さな地震でも高い場所の揺れは大きく感じるものなのですね
改めて震災時の揺れるビルの動画を思い出しました......

改めてこんばんは､こんにちはおはようございます
先週も一週間お疲れさまでした
今日も一日お疲れさまでした
冷たい雨で始まる新しい一週間も明けましておめでとうございます

先週の事件から一週間､未だにあの時沸き上がったいかりの感情が心にあり

見る人見る人が容疑者に映る今
格好の特徴と動きと全部頭に入っているので､どうしても目で追い
逆に怪しい人のように映っているかもしれない今

僕の周りの同期生や娘さんの居る近所のみなさんには注意を呼び掛け､連絡網のように伝えたのですが

近所での事件に同級生は皆驚きと共に､気をつけさせると話していました

自分はそれから犯人捜しではなく逃げていった路地や近所を防犯パトロールをするようになってしまいましたが

幼なじみの女性は､本当にそういう事件が許せないと
｢見つけたら玉を潰してやる｣とジェスチャーを交え言っていました

パトロール中度々すれ違うようになり先日
｢私キメ台詞を思いついた｣と......
｢使い物に出来ないようにしてやるよ.....｣と金玉を潰すジェスチャーを交えニヤニヤとしながら夜の町内に消えていきました(笑)

異名は【玉潰しの朋(トモ)】
ちなみに自分の異名は【手足ちょん切りの昭】

こんなおふざけの様なやり取りですが町内や同級生達の怒りは本気です......

犯人より危ない奴らが近所を見張っています
次はどんな異名を持った同級生が現れることか

兎に角異名を持った奴らより先に犯人が早く捕まる事を願っています
ずっと気を張っているせいか少し心と頭が疲れているような感覚の今

子供たちの笑顔が少しの薬になってくれました

皆さんも皆さんの周りの娘さん達もくれぐれもお気をつけください......

年末になると変な人が増えますから......

それでは先週見た感じた優しい景色達を最後に......

今週も月曜日の長いBlog失礼しました

新しい一週間も冷たい空気に負けないくらい心あたたかで
優しい風心に感じる日々時間でありますように......

今週も一週間メンバーBlogに風をもらってください
よろしくお願いします......

少しBlog遅刻して遅くなってすいませんでした

それでは今週も青春で
強く優しくあたたかく
生きよう

時に青春は熱い怒りをも生む
だけどそれは相手の心を思いやればこそ......
クソッタレになんか1mmも負けねぇよ
今週も生きようぜ

Sheep-like clouds: It will rain the next day.

The sky I looked up at was simply vibrant
I pedaled my bike, chasing the horizon, as dusk approached on a Sunday
It was a moment of warmth, as if enveloped in the gentle colors of the sky peeking through the fluffy clouds and the soft orange light of the young sunset before dusk...
 
Last weekend, the sky was beautifully clear and the sunshine was warm
On Saturday, at the Ota Ward Festival in Heiwajima, Tokyo, children performed dances on an artificial turf stage under the blue sky
In a short amount of time, one class after another showcased their dances
Sunday's POP BREAKDANCE Two boys from the class, as usual, performed.

These two were forced to dance at Shinsuke's charity event at my unreasonable request.

They wore Shinsuke's charity event T-shirt and orange knit hats as their costumes and gave their all on stage, showcasing the results of their hard work and practice.
They're cute backstage, but they were so confident on stage.

There was a moment when I felt like I was about to cry, filled with various emotions...

The round trip by bicycle to the venue, which took about two hours, felt refreshing thanks to the sky, the wind, and the children's performance.

And then, last week, when it was sunny again... In the early morning, with only a short time to spare, I headed to Central Park in the industrial area... Imagining the fluffy, red kochia plants I'd been told about, I walked through the trees, feeling the morning sunlight filtering through the leaves, towards where the kochia plants were gathered...
_
There was a cluster of kochia plants, still pale green, with slightly flushed cheeks.
The kochia in the industrial area seemed stubborn, but these were shy, blushing kochia
.
As the morning weather forecast predicted, the weather would deteriorate the next day, and Monday, the start of a new week, began with a cold rain.

The air suddenly turned cold, and I was enveloped in a winter-like atmosphere. A quick glance

I hastily pulled out a jacket with a fleece lining and headed to my brother's place by train today...

The hospital is always kept at a comfortable temperature; cool in the summer and warm in the winter, always feeling like autumn...

Shinsuke seemed comfortable too.

However, while Shinsuke was undergoing rehabilitation, an earthquake struck...

The 7th floor shook violently, and the nurse next to me was telling the old man that it was shaking so much it was making him dizzy...

When the earthquake struck, the nurses called out to each room and checked on the situation. They were thorough in coming to check on us, and they even came over to speak to us, but both brothers acted as if nothing had happened, saying, "Oh, we're fine, thank you."

It's a relief it wasn't a major earthquake, but even a small earthquake feels much stronger in high places.
It reminded me of the videos of buildings shaking during the earthquake...

Good evening, good afternoon, good morning again.
Thank you for your hard work last week.
Thank you for your hard work today.
Happy New Year as we begin a new week with cold rain.

A week has passed since last week's incident, and the anger that welled up inside me at that time is still there.

Now, everyone I see seems like a suspect.
I have all the distinctive features and movements memorized, so I can't help but follow people with my eyes.
Conversely, I might be appearing suspicious myself.

I've warned my classmates and neighbors with daughters to be careful, spreading the word through a kind of contact network.

My classmates were all surprised by the incident in the neighborhood and said they would be careful.

Since then, instead of searching for the culprit, I've started doing crime prevention patrols in the alleys and neighborhoods where the culprit fled. But...

My childhood friend, a woman, truly couldn't tolerate such incidents, and she said, "If I find him, I'll crush his balls," while making a gesture.

We started running into each other frequently during patrols, and the other day, she said, "I've thought of a catchphrase..."
"I'll make sure he's completely useless..." she said, grinning and making a gesture of crushing testicles, before disappearing into the night (lol).

Her nickname is "Tomo the Ball Crusher."

Incidentally, my nickname is "Akira the Limb Chopper."

Although this exchange seems like a joke, the anger of the neighborhood and our classmates is... I'm serious...

There are people more dangerous than the culprit watching the neighborhood.

Who knows what kind of classmate with a bad nickname will show up next?

Anyway, I hope the culprit is caught before those people with bad nicknames do.

I feel a little mentally and emotionally exhausted right now, probably because I've been on high alert all this time.

The children's smiles have been a little bit of relief.

Please be very careful, everyone and the daughters around you...

There are more strange people around as the year-end approaches...

And finally, here are some of the gentle scenes I saw and felt last week..
 
This week is also Monday. Sorry for the long blog post.

May this new week be filled with warmth and gentle feelings, enough to overcome the cold air...

Please get some fresh air from the members' blogs this week as well.
Thank you...

Sorry for the slight delay in posting this blog.

So, let's live this week with youthful energy, strength, kindness, and warmth.

Sometimes youth can give rise to burning anger, but that's only because we care about the other person's feelings...
I won't lose to those bastards even a millimeter!
Let's live this week too!
