The photo shows one of the many collaborated works with my late mother.  The two big letters “lily” were by my mother and I added my haiku about white lilies.  The flower shop I went to today didn’t carry white ones.  My entrance is filled with the strong, sweet fragrance characteristic of the flowers now.

写真は数多く遺っている母との合作の一つで、母の大きな字「百合」と私の句です。お花屋さんには白百合がありませんでしたが、百合特有の強く甘い香りが玄関に溢れています。

O, white lilies/

You forcefully bore/

Blue sky/
