hirayama, ikuo, originally uploaded by julesberry2001.

Ikuo Hirayama, "the most famous artist in all Japan" (so say our friends), died a few days ago. This is the kanji from the front of his house ("Hira" above "Yama"), just down the road from ours, and right next to the radiant gingko. I expect someone good at words would find a haiku in there somewhere...

    rain falls on stucco
    artist Hira Yama's mark is left
    for us to wash away

    Ginko turns yellow
    Hirayama ashes sown
    Spring renews the green

    Well I'm not "good at words" but I'll have a go.


    Hira on Yama
    Japan's "most famous artist"
    Gingko leaves too, fall.

    Hirayama's house:
    Autumn colours the gingko
    For others to paint
