Jūkichi Yagi

My Mother\'s Eyes

In the evening
when I open my eyes
I think of my mother in my hometown far away,
also opening her eyes and saying, “O my sweet child.”

MY MOTHER\'S EYES

My Mother\'s Eyes

In the evening
when I open my eyes
I think of my mother in my hometown far away,
also opening her eyes and saying, “O my sweet child.”
