The sun has come after a long time. I didn’t go to the daily routine for walking in the past few days. The weather forecast said it was cloudy today, but the weather started to get light so I went to a nearby park. By the time I arrive at the park, I can see the blue sky and occasionally the strong sunlight shines on. The cicada’s voice, which I didn’t notice so much before, is louder today. Although the main character of the voice is still Niiniizemi, occasionally Abrazemi’s voice is mixed. The end of the rainy season is close evidence. There are small holes here and there on the ground of the boardwalk. It is a hole through which the larvae of cicadas have come out. Well, what kind of summer will this summer be?

久しぶりに日が差しました。日課にしているウォーキングもここのところ滞りがちです。今日も予報では曇りでしたが、薄日が差し始めたので近くの公園に出掛けました。公園に着いた頃には青空も見え、時折強い日差しが照りつけます。この前にはそれほど気にならなかったセミの声が、今日は一段と激しく鳴いています。まだ主役はニイニイゼミで時折アブラゼミの声も混ざります。梅雨明けが間近な証拠です。遊歩道の地面にはあちらこちらに小さな穴が空いています。セミの幼虫が抜け出た穴です。さあて、この夏はどんな夏になるのやら。
