久しぶりにロングコースの散歩。紅葉にはちょっと早い山々の景色を遠くに見ながら、秋の光と風を体全体でたっぷり受ける気持ち良さといったらありません。目指す「きまぐれ市」の自動販売機に何が入ってるかなぁと思いながら歩いていると、綺麗に整えられた田んぼの反対側に枯れた植物群。何だろうと近づくとそれは大豆畑でした。何か訳があるのでしょうが、せっかく枝豆ができているのにどうして？と不思議に思わずにはいられませんでした。
きまぐれ市で”GET” したのはトマトとブロッコリー。トマト３００円ブロッコリー１５０円。新鮮な野菜に元気をもらいます。
帰りは色とりどりのコスモスが咲く農道をコスモスが好きだったすぐ上の兄を思いながら歩いていると何だか柔らかな気持ちで胸が溢れました。勝手に「コスモスの小径」と名前をつけました。
I had a long morning walk after a long time. It was a little bit early to see autumn colors in the mountains, but I felt so good to receive the autumn sunlight and wind. When I was walking, I thought about what kind of vegetable would be in the vending machine in Kimagure Market. I saw fields which were neatly prepared for the next planting but also fields where all plants were completely dried on the other side.
I was very shocked and thought that it must be some reason but I didn't know why the owner of the field didn't harvest before they dried up.
At the Kimagure vegetable market, I got fresh tomatoes and broccoli at a reasonable price.
On the way back home, I walked along a farm path where various colored cosmos blossomed on the side. I was thinking of my brother who died young and loved the cosmos. My heart was filled with a quiet and calm feeling. I named it "Cosmos Path" then.
