好天続きだった空が曇り始めました。空き家の実家に暫くぶりに帰ってこられた近所のOさんから庭に実った柿と大きな柿の枝をいただきました。蔵の壺にそのまま挿すと家の中は居ながらにして秋の風情でいっぱいになります。これとは別にいただいた柿の実は早速、胃袋に直行。近頃は種無し柿も店頭に出ていますが、種が当たるか当たらないか探りながら包丁を入れ、薄い朱色の果肉にピカピカの焦げ茶色の種を見るのもまたいいものです。少し前に彦根のYさんからいただいたザクロ。食べるためにと下さったのですが、枝つきで美しかったので観賞用に飾りました。果実の実りは心の安定と落ち着きをもたらしてくれるものですね。
We had a clear sky for several days but it turned cloudy. I received persimmons and it's big branch from Ms.O, a neighbor who returned to her native home and so the house has been empty for decades. I put the branch into a big pot in the warehouse. It suits the atmosphere of the warehouse very much and I feel autumn even inside the house. Ms. O gave many persimmons other than branches and I enjoyed the taste of some of them. Recently I could find seedless persimmons at the supermarket, but it is also good to enjoy the color combination of light vermion of flesh of fruit and shining dark brown of seed in a regular one. I got pomegranates from Ms. Y in Hikone a few days ago. Although she gave them to me to eat, I put them in the vase to watch instead. I appreciate the stable and calm feeling watching those fruits on branches.
