Pleasures of a happy home
Evening reminds me of a family.
The place that people come back through.
Small house is full of much love.
The back of mother.
I still hold the impression of the color.
The warm touch.
The shore is sometimes dyed in colors like mother.
With nostalgia.
Forever...

尾崎 放哉 (1885 - 1926)

" Mother " Japanese calligraphy
"母" (bo, or haha). It is translated as mother.
This character is written by Kanzi, Regular script.
Etymology : Pictogram
a woman with breasts with nipples kneeling or standing.
In modern form turned on left side.
Cognate to 女 (“woman”), which has developed similarly, but does not include dots for nipples and has lost one breast.
Compare also 卵 (“eggs”), presumably from testicles.
The fertile form seems to mold the shape of mother.
It may be expressed the gentleness, too.

Gone with blue-green airspace
The paddy-rice finally changes to deep green.
They will continue the undulation such as the wave.
So, without cease.
The strong backlight focuses on the rice field.
Deeper, more distance.
Like heat haze...
The clouds are wandering about in the silence.
The candela lets colors float still more.
All may be absorbed there.

松尾 芭蕉 (1644 - 1694)
