Tue. 橋

　　青い橋越えれば向こうに何がある荷台空なるトラックが往く

能代の象徴ともなる米代川に架かる青い橋。
橋って郷愁があるが、初夏に見た四国を結ぶ大橋は私のキャパを超えて恐れをなした。河にあっての橋で、海の上のつり橋は風景としても美しくはない、と感じた。
かずら橋は山峡にあって堂々たるもの。ゆらゆらゆれて足元は危なかしかったが、追ってを拒む生活の橋として、迫るものがあった。
Eggs
Eggs can be cooked for many dishes. Some times I have a raw egg with rice, we call this “ Tamagokakegohan” in Japanese. This is a popular dish for breakfast. But I heard that raw eggs are not eaten in other countries. (In the USA and the UK they don’t eat the raw eggs.)
When I was a child, there were many chickens in my parent’s back yard.
Every day I gathered the eggs with my grandfather. I felt happy collecting warm eggs.
I’m no longer a child now, however I like eggs. I have scrambled eggs, poached eggs, soft boiled eggs, and hard boiled eggs.
How do you like your eggs?
Anyway, the price of eggs is too low.
I suppose the proper price should be twice as expensive as they are today.　And the chickens should be raised not in henhouses but on the ground.(in the open air) Why don’t you raise some chickens in your field Kiyo?
In Japanese, we call an inexperienced person “egg.” For example, doctor’s egg ( a doctor in the making ), lawyer’s egg ( a fledgling lawyer ), writer’s egg ( a future writer ).
