A Lament for Kichijoji

Late December 2006

Lament: cry for, bemoun, mourning for, wailing


lamenting for my kichijoji how i miss you kichijoji
the bike path along your river bank
past the small city of mitakadai
where i have enjoyed cherry blossoms overhead
carps and the occassional heron
lamenting for my home away from home
how i miss you, my kichijoji

  1. From Yuichi :

    what a sentimental poem you wrote i ever read in my life

    lamenting for my fujimigaoka how i miss you fujimigaoka
    the narrow busy street to the station
    where i have enjoyed shopping and dinner at second hand
    shop and noodle guy
    saw sometimes aoba students and teachers on the street
    lamenting for your old apartment where countless good
    memories that never perish
    how i miss you, my fujimigaoka
