"Summer Shrine" As you walk along the path overgrown with green trees, a vermilion shrine appears in front of you. The voices of cicadas echo through the trees, and the sunlight gently illuminates the ground. Along with the sound of leaves swaying in the wind, my heart is quietly filled.

Thereare in the summer, even though I get sweaty in the park, I go to see the sunflowers. I am amazed at the number of varieties of sunflowers these days. This year, I was surprised and such a vermilion sunflower.

In the summer garden of my parents' house, morning glories bloomed every year. I thought that was normal, but these days, when condominiums are lined up, I don't see it so much anymore and I even feel lonely. I was delighted to see the morning glory blooming in the park.
