音時雨 ~Regentropfen~

♤ 白に包まれたくて…・I Wish I could Stay in White…

The first rain in this winter fell this morning. Today would be less than 10 centigrade, even though it was morn warmer yesterday. I heard it in the weather report.
It was true that today turned colder. I felt the wind flowed; I felt the wind last time, however, was long time ago. I felt that I was been wrapping in the cold wind, and I saw white breath from my mouth.
This morning, I was going back from lab, the view of the road’s the other side went into sight. Under the gray sky, in the gray rain, the road looked had a thicker gray on it. The trees of its left were green, but the opposite ones were golden. That was very beautiful. Especially the trees in the right side, and I thought I liked them as soon as I saw them.
Why not take a photo at the view? I thought, and I did it, therefore.
In which my home is, snow maybe fall soon…
Since I went into college, I have been used to the snow-lack winter. In real, I think that “snow” is another saying of “winter.” Nevertheless, sometimes the snow-lack winter has the same wonder. Today, when my last snow-lack winter came, I got my first memory of it.
Different from the winter that I have been accustomed to, the “unusual” winter has its own flavor. That is what I got after these years of college life.
The rain stopped at four this afternoon. I went out and took a deep breath; I know that winter is my last snow-lack winter. I will say Bye to such winter in next year. Ah, how I feel happy about it!
It certainly should be snow in winter – no matter how snow-lack winter is wonderful. I think so, you see.

朝から、この冬に最初の雨が降ってきた。昨日はまだ何十か摂氏だったのに、今日の気温はせいぜい8摂氏だけだと、天気予報が言った。
やはり寒かったね。長く感じていない風も吹き出したし、体中は初冬の寒さに包み込まれたかのようだった。ちょっぴりその寒い空気を吸って吐き出せば、白い吐息を見られた。
午前、実験室から戻っていた時、ふと向こうの道を見えた――灰色の空の下、灰色の雨の中、より深くした灰色の道だった。左側の木々は濃く碧の色の反面、右側の木々は濃く金色だった。とても美しかった。特に右側の金色の木々、わたしは見るなりそれを恋しくなった。
私は、さっさと写真を撮ろうと思って、一枚の記念を残した。
家にもうすぐ、雪が降るのだろう…
大学に入ってから、ここの雪の無い冬には、私はもう慣れた。本気に言えば、冬は雪そのものの言い換えだと見なしている。でも、偶には雪の無い冬なども同じく素敵。そして今日、私の最後の雪無き冬が訪れる時に、最初の記念を残していた。
私の知った普通の冬と違う、「普通じゃない冬」もそれなりの味わいが持っている。これはね、何年後の私がしみじみと分かった。
けれども、午後四時、雨が止んだ。部屋から出ると、外の冷たい空気を深呼吸し、来年はこんな冬にサヨナラと言うのを思い出し、なんとなく、心に歓びがいっぱい。
どんな特別な味わいがあっても、冬に雪が無ければだめ。というものだね!
